Really excited to be speaking at the @AlltechIreland ONE Dublin
My presentation will be on Emissions reductions: What are the viable options.
I will be utilising @AlltechECO2 data and insights to help communicate on the livestock industries pathway to reducing carbon. @Alltech

We have also done a phosphate mass balance on the farm and are 4000kgs negative. But no way of capitalising on this that I am aware of. DEFRA think we are all phosphate polluters! I was hoping to sell phosphate creditsπ€·ββοΈ

When I saw you were hosting I assumed you would be just grazing herbal leys and wearing shorts and sandals! #gutted π

We use all our crops (apart from selling a little bit of forage) so all my carbon costs are wrapped up in our forage, so I would say my wheat is in fact a forage therefore it has zero carbon and as you say may well even be sequestering as well ππππ€―

Our wheat has been calculated as near carbon neutral, strip till, rising organic matters and plenty of muck meaning no p&k applications and reduced N rates. The cow is the answer, 1st cut next week π€with no applied N just muck.

Already have some clients looking at this! Definitely possible as we look at crop EAβs to feed into a Dairy EA. Itβs got to be an option as we look for ways to get to zero carbon dairy

Will we get to a point where a dairy farmer will pay a premium for low carbon wheat from a regen arable farmer to reduce CF of milk? @No1FarmerJake π

Complicated question but for example Round up ready crops in theory could have a lower CFP in the short term, but the destruction of soil microbes and other environmental challenges make this unsustainable. If you have a low CFP at the cost of an external factor it wont last

This is an autumn block herd, great environment, transition, forage, strict 2yr calving and great calf rearing. Challenge cows to eat more forage by avoiding low grade concentrates - improve 100 things by 1%π

Increasingly being reported eg @ThisIsYelo UK grown/ processed Novapro is approx 1/7th of Carbon cost at non sustainable soya - normal rapemeal mix of UK and imported but way below soya. If you avoid soya and palm you make headway, - ratio of productive/non-prod livestock is key

This farm has done both, reducing the carbon intensity through more sustainable feed, yield increases through forage and better feed utilisation. As well as less youngstock. We as an industry need to look at gross emissions, but an on farm level it needs to be emissions intensity

If our milk supply comes from herds with lower CF vs higher CF, we will have released less CO2 for a given national output - then can look at what will bring it down further - 𧬠will play a part, as will feeding technology and inhibitors Im sure
