Future priority focus areas
Find out about the areas that require extra attention to achieve the roadmap's goals.
Future priority focus areas for livestock
The agriculture industry is actively working to reduce its carbon emissions. You can find more details about the programs run by both the industry and the government in our implementation plan.
The Queensland Low Emissions Agriculture Roadmap Stakeholder Advisory Committee has identified areas that require extra attention to achieve the roadmap's goals.
Short to medium term delivery
- Improved understanding of carbon cycling and loss pathways for key greenhouse gas inputs
- Cost–benefit and feasibility analyses for emissions reduction technologies
Medium to long term delivery
- Lifecycle assessments and global benchmarking of key products/commodities—and feeding of these into trade policy/accreditation
- Rangeland delivery mechanisms for methane-suppressing dietary supplements
- Accelerated commercialisation of new and proven technology
Ongoing delivery
- First Nations partnerships
- Cross-sectoral partnerships
- Accelerated and coordinated extension effort, both face to face and using online resources
