A Common Approach to SectorLevel Greenhouse-Gas Accounting for Australian Agriculture

AIA and CSIRO have developed a common framework for GHG accounting for Australian agriculture, which supports sector-level baselines, reporting and communication of a united narrative around emissions.

AIA announced the completion of the Common approach to sector-level greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting for Australian agriculture project.

This project developed a common framework for GHG accounting, which will help support sector-level baselines, reporting and communication of a united Australian narrative around emissions.

The Common Approach to GHG Accounting for Australian Agriculture framework provides best practice guidance for sector-level accounting and can be used to steer improvements in data collection and reporting over time.

Prior to the commencement of this project, no national guidance for agricultural sector-level GHG accounting within Australia existed.

The Australian Agricultural Sustainability Framework is funded by the Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Fisheries & Forestry through the National Agriculture Traceability Grants Program. Project delivery is led by the National Farmers’ Federation.
