Who is the Carbon EDGE program for?
Carbon EDGE has been designed to help grassfed beef, sheep and goat producers who are looking to build on their understanding of carbon.
Advisors and other service providers looking to enhance their understanding of the current operating environment are also encouraged to attend.
What do producers think of Carbon EDGE?
The design of the Carbon EDGE workshops recognises that everyone will be at a different starting point when it comes to carbon. However, it is highly recommended that participants complete pre-work before attending to get the best out of the program. This includes the eLearning modules available on MLA’s Toolbox and complete a carbon account using MLA’s Carbon Calculator.
More events are currently being planned across Australia and will be added to the website when confirmed. If you can’t make one of the workshops above, register your details to keep informed of new workshop dates.
If you have a producer group interested, register your interest below.
MLA will contact you to discuss the opportunity to organise a workshop with your group.
MLA is committed to providing the highest quality, industry-based learning experiences to Australian red meat producers through the EDGEnetwork. Carbon EDGE will be delivered by a network of independent deliverers across Australia.
First round applications for Carbon EDGE deliverers are now closed. Express your interest below to be notified when applications reopen.
Help facilitate the logistics of a workshop or subsidise workshops for producers in your local area.
