The Granting Department is offering this grant to fund a demonstration study focused on quantifying changes in soil organic carbon. This grant is for the purpose of precisely measuring carbon sequestration potential achieved through improved pasture management practices. Proposals are solicited from eligible entities with established expertise in conducting soil carbon measurement studies. The initiative aims to validate how specific pasture management techniques contribute to demonstrable increases in soil organic carbon, yielding critical data. This will advance robust methodologies for assessing carbon sequestration, crucial for sustainable land management and climate change mitigation efforts.
