March's climate & carbon update

10 March 2025 | 8 min read

Highlights for climate and carbon

  • The European Commission's "A Vision for Agriculture and Food" shows the EU's plan for a stronger and more sustainable farming sector. This document focuses on European farming. Yet, its regulatory changes also impact Australian grain producers and exports. The EU is a key trade partner, so it's important to understand these changes. This knowledge helps maintain and grow market access.
  • The EU and Australia both focus on sustainable agriculture. They encounter different challenges in climate, environment, and production. Australia's agricultural problems are not the same as Europe's. Climate, soil, and water vary a lot between the two areas. For this reason, Australia needs unique solutions for sustainability.
  • Australian farmers lead the world in no-till farming and precision agriculture. These techniques boost sustainability and keep productivity high in Australia’s tough climate. Australia's creative way of handling sustainability is different from the EU's strict rules. It shows that technology can do more than follow regulations.
