On today's show, Jamie Mackay caught up with Dr Bradley Case, who has just completed a study for Beef + Lamb New Zealand, which found out Kiwi sheep and beef farms are close to being carbon neutral.
On with the show:
Dr Bradley Case:
Is an academic from the Auckland University of Technology. This week in association with B+LNZ he released a ground-breaking new piece of independent research that shows the woody vegetation on New Zealand sheep and beef farms is offsetting between 63 per cent and 118 per cent of their on-farm agricultural emissions, meaning our farms are close to being carbon neutral.
