The Carbon & Beyond Program
In our flagship Carbon & Beyond Program, we focus on maximising your primary production income. On top of this, we help you to access extra income from carbon credits.
Carbon & Beyond
The 25-year Program makes it easy for you to get into soil carbon farming.
Carbon Sync takes on all of the red tape and paperwork, so you can focus on what you do best - farming your land.
Carbon & Beyond
You keep your autonomy as a farmer, with the focus on maximising your primary production profitability.
We’re with you every step of the journey, helping you decide which management practices will result in the highest profitability for your farm.
Carbon & Beyond
Carbon Sync takes on most of the costs and all of the risk for the Program.
If you succeed in building and maintaining carbon in your soil, we both win. If you don’t succeed, Carbon Sync wears the bulk of the cost.
FAQs
-
The 25-year project costs Carbon Sync upwards of $400,000 to run, depending on your land size. Farmers are asked to contribute $15,000 per year for the first 4 years of the project (total $60,000+GST). Carbon Sync takes on all the risks and the rest of the costs, and recoups these as a proportion of the carbon credits earned if the project is successful.

The more cleared land you have, the greater the opportunity to spread the initial set-up costs over greater land mass and accrue carbon credits across your land.
Carbon Sync seeks to work with larger landholders to amortise these initial establishment costs over larger land bases. If you are managing over 250 hectares of cleared land, we would welcome an initial enquiry through our Contact page.

No, a soil carbon project with Carbon Sync is not expected to lower your land’s value. On the contrary, it has the potential to enhance it significantly. Carbon Sync’s projects are built around the principle of natural capital accounting, a holistic approach that evaluates and strengthens the environmental, economic, and social value of your land.
