Funding for landscape-scale, carbon abatement projects

Overview

Support is available to fund the initial stages of development for landscape-scale projects which aim to deliver carbon abatement alongside other benefits.

Examples of landscape-scale projects include:

• a water catchment area, with multiple private properties and public land such as state forests or national park, where there is potential for carbon abatement projects to mitigate flood risk to downstream communities, improve water quality and increase habitat connectivity
• a landscape dominated by producers of a certain food or fibre product, where there is potential for carbon abatement projects to address supply chain sustainability targets while simultaneously improving productivity.
