Werrina Carbon Farming Project (Revoked)

Werrina Carbon Farming Project (Revoked) was a Native Forest from Managed Regrowth project located approximately 60km southwest of Charleville in the Murweh local government area of Queensland. It was registered in December 2014 and covered 2,868.14 ha.

Native forest from managed regrowth projects involve allowing native vegetation to regenerate into a permanent native forest by ceasing activities that suppress or destroy regrowth, such as mechanical clearing or chemical spraying. Standard methodology requirements dictate that the project area must have been previously subjected to at least one comprehensive clearing for pastoral use, allowing for assisted regeneration from in-situ seed sources like rootstock and lignotubers.

The Murweh region is heavily focused on agriculture, particularly beef cattle and sheep grazing on native pastures. The area features a semi-arid climate with an average annual rainfall of approximately 490mm. The soils in this "mulga country" are typically Kandosols, which feature sandy to loamy surfaces grading into porous sandy-clay subsoils, characterized by low fertility and poor water-holding capacity.

This project was originally managed by Devine Agribusiness Carbon Pty Ltd until August 2021, when the proponent was formally varied to Brock and Katrina Hindmarch. This change aligned closely with the acquisition of Devine Agribusiness Carbon by major environmental markets investor GreenCollar in July 2021. The project recently faced severe regulatory enforcement; in February 2026, the Clean Energy Regulator issued a notice under section 32 of the CFI Act requiring Brock Hindmarch to relinquish 46,767 ACCUs. Following this relinquishment order, the Werrina Carbon Farming Project was officially revoked under section 29 of the CFI Rule on May 11, 2026.
