Jinglemoney Farm Carbon Project (Revoked)
EOP101066
Project Information:
Jinglemoney Farm Carbon Project (Revoked) was a soil carbon sequestration project located approximately 9km from the heritage-listed town of Braidwood in the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales. Registered in April 2015, the project covered 502.75 hectares of grazing land and native bush. The property itself, situated on Jinglemoney Lane, holds significant historical value, having been originally settled in the late 1820s by the Mackellar family.
The project operated under the Sequestering Carbon in Soils in Grazing Systems (2014) methodology. This method credits landholders for increasing soil organic carbon levels through improved land management activities, such as optimising pasture management to boost plant growth and root biomass. The project aimed to implement the "SoilSense program" to manage pasture and sequester carbon. Unlike tree-planting projects, soil carbon projects require rigorous baseline testing and subsequent sampling to verify carbon increases over time.
The Braidwood region is characterised by a temperate climate with distinct seasons and granite-derived soils, which are typical for the area's rolling grazing country. The landscape supports cattle and horse grazing, interspersed with stands of native vegetation. Despite the project's long-term goals, it was revoked on September 5, 2025, under Section 30 of the CFI Rule, which typically pertains to the voluntary revocation of a project declaration. Public records indicate the project held a carbon abatement contract for 75,000 tonnes of abatement but had not issued or delivered any Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) prior to its revocation.
