Mount Constellation Carbon Project (Revoked)
ERF123884
Project Information:
Mount Constellation Carbon Project (Revoked) was a soil carbon project located in the Towong Shire, approximately 15km southeast of Corryong in Victoria. It was registered in August 2018 and covered a project area of 159.20 hectares.
Soil carbon projects operating under the Sequestering Carbon in Soils in Grazing Systems methodology involve changing agricultural management practices to increase the amount of carbon drawn down and stored in the soil. Standard requirements involve implementing new eligible management activities, such as altering stocking rates, applying nutrients, or undertaking pasture cropping, and relying on rigorous baseline and subsequent direct physical measurements of soil carbon stocks to calculate sequestration.
The Upper Murray region surrounding Corryong is highly productive and primarily known for broadacre agriculture, with a strong focus on beef and dairy cattle grazing. The local environment features a moderate-to-high rainfall climate, with Corryong averaging approximately 775mm of precipitation annually. Soils across the regional valleys and grazing plains typically consist of alluvial clays, sandy clay loams, and texture-contrast soils.
This project was specifically set up to increase carbon in the soil within a grazing system by actively rejuvenating pastures and undertaking pasture cropping. Originally developed by Corporate Carbon Solutions Pty Ltd, the project was officially revoked in July 2025 under the Carbon Farming Initiative (CFI) Rule.
