The results show a novel technology that could be used to reduce cost of soil carbon measurement for management purposes or carbon credit schemes. \nThis project was born when Agrimix director\, Nick Kempe\, started asking “how much carbon can Progardes®desmanthus\, a deep tap rooted\, nitrogen-fixing legume\, actually sequester?”. We then realised there was no reliable\, low-cost way to find out the answer! \nAgrimix teamed up with renowned soil scientists Professor Peter Grace and Professor David Rowlings and commissioned a major scientific research study into eddy covariance flux tower technology in collaboration with QUT\, with support from leading Australian beef producers. \nThis project is part of Meat & Livestock Australia’s Carbon Storage Partnership and the Australian Government’s National Soil Carbon Innovation Challenge. \nSpeakers: \nZac Geldof – Principal Agronomist\, Agrimix\nChloe Kempe\, Research Program Manager\, Agrimix \nDate and time: 17 September at 6:30pm AEST (7:30pm AEDT) URL:https://futurebeef.com.au/event/mla-sustainbility-series-modelling-soil-carbon-in-grazing-lands-with-agrimix/ LOCATION:Online\, Qld\, Australia CATEGORIES:Past Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://futurebeef.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/job37226_action184753_mla-sustainability-webinar-modeling-soil-carbon-1200x630-1.png ORGANIZER;CN="MLA":MAILTO:events@mla.com.au END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Australia/Brisbane:20250910T183000 DTEND;TZID=Australia/Brisbane:20250910T193000 DTSTAMP:20260325T074307Z CREATED:20250811T012752Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260325T074307Z UID:10000536-1757529000-1757532600@futurebeef.com.au SUMMARY:MLA Sustainability series: Time controlled grazing — Webinar DESCRIPTION:Join the Meat & Livestock Australia Sustainability Webinar Series: Time-Controlled Grazing\, 10 September at 6:30pm (AEST). \nTime-controlled grazing (TCG) has been promoted for its potential to improve soil health\, pasture productivity\, and livestock performance. However\, its adoption in Australia has been limited due to conflicting scientific evidence. \nResearch with Queensland University of Technology (QUT) compared paired paddocks under TCG and conventional grazing management\, measuring for impact on soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration\, nitrogen and biodiversity. \nYour expert presenter will be Professor David Rowlings\, Program of Sustainable Agriculture – QUT.

This webinar focusses on establishing legumes into existing grass pastures in the monsoonal zone of northern Queensland. \nBeef grazing on native pastures is the key land use in the seasonally dry zone of north Queensland but animal productivity is limited by poor feed supply during the extended dry season. The adoption of legumes into grass pastures has historically been shown to increase returns through improving the diet over the year\, but adoption has remained low. \nRecent research by the Queensland Government and Meat & Livestock Australia has focussed on the development of legume-grass ‘production paddocks’ on a range of land types to target the nutrition of key livestock classes (weaners\, steers). These systems are highly productive and profitable\, but successful adoption by graziers depends on reliable and affordable establishment. \nIn this BeefConnect webinar\, join Dr Kendrick Cox (DPI Principal Pasture Scientist)\, as he discusses the case for investing in legume pastures and describes a range of methods and considerations to reliably establish pasture legumes into native and sown grass pastures under a range of situations in the northern tropics of Queensland.
