Mandatory emissions reporting is heading for Australian agriculture—but are producers ready? And more importantly, is the policy?
In this episode, we speak with Mike Guerin, CEO of AgForce, and Mark Collins, AgForce Policy Director, to unpack what’s really going on behind the headlines. Together, they outline AgForce’s public stance, the inconsistencies in government policy, and why rushing into compliance without the right tools, support, and consultation could do more harm than good.
We discuss:
- What Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions actually mean for farmers
- The unintended ways producers could get caught in the net
- Concerns around data accuracy, supply chain pressure & global competitiveness
- Why current emissions tools aren’t ready for practical, on-farm use
- AgForce’s call for a smarter, co-designed, and workable approach
- The financial risks for producers—and what fair support should look like
If you’re a landholder, agribusiness operator, or policymaker, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not about avoiding climate responsibility—it’s about doing it right.
