First Broadacre Cropping Carbon Credits Issued via Fungal Seed Treatment in NSW

A farming operation in New South Wales has achieved a milestone by generating Australian Carbon Credit Units through a carbon-sequestering fungal seed treatment. This project demonstrates a new method for broadacre cropping to capture carbon while simultaneously enhancing soil health and crop productivity. Developed by Loam Bio, the technology allows farmers to monetize carbon sequestration directly from their cropping cycles. This approach provides a financial incentive for sustainable land management and represents a shift in how agricultural carbon credits are generated in the Australian market.
