FLAG (Forest, Land and Agriculture) emission accounting covers the greenhouse gas emissions specific to agricultural and land-based activities, methane from livestock, nitrous oxide from fertilisers, carbon from land clearing and vegetation change, and energy used in farming operations. Under the SBTi FLAG Guidance and the GHG Protocol's Land Sector and Removals framework, companies with significant agricultural supply chains must now separately measure and report these emissions. For Queensland farmers, this means your cattle numbers, fertiliser use, diesel consumption, and land management practices all need to be quantified.
Is this right for your business?
Queensland cattle producers, grain growers, horticulture operations, mixed farming businesses, and agribusinesses who are being asked for emission data by supermarkets, processors, or large agricultural supply chain buyers completing SBTi FLAG targets.
