Land-use change and sustainability scenario, Australia 2013 - 2050


Our Landowner Lawyer found this animated YouTube clip on the CSIRO site. 

It depicts "the economic potential for land-use change and the impact on economic and environmental sustainability." and has been supplied by Brett Bryan. 

Brett Bryan is the author of a previous article shared by The Landowner Lawyer on 1 April 2016 "Farming in 2050: storing carbon could help meet Australia's climate goals".

Of particular interest is the huge predicted growth of carbon plantings (pale blue on the map). As the years progress, the area of carbon plantings increase along with the economic returns. Crop and livestock demand increases as does the carbon price, while oil and electricity prices level out.

Our Energy, Environment & Agribusiness team would be happy to talk to you about how you can use Carbon Planting as an alternative on-farm income source.
