Project Information:

Daly Pty Ltd (Revoked) is a soil carbon project located approximately 20km southeast of Young in the South West Slopes region of New South Wales. It was registered in June 2021 and covers an area of 1174.81 hectares.

Soil carbon projects utilizing the Estimation of Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration using Measurement and Models 2021 method aim to build and retain carbon in agricultural soils. This methodology typically requires landholders to adopt new or materially different eligible management activities, such as altering stocking rates or modifying tillage, and involves rigorous baseline soil sampling followed by subsequent measurement rounds or modeled approaches to quantify carbon gains.

The Young region is well-known for its intensive mixed farming, combining horticulture, broadacre cropping (such as wheat and canola), and livestock grazing. The area experiences a moderate rainfall climate, and its soils predominantly consist of highly productive red-brown earths, chromosols, and clay loams.

This project specifically focused on increasing soil carbon by converting from intensive tillage practices to reduced or no-tillage practices within its agricultural systems. Over its operational lifetime, the project underwent a methodology variation in November 2025, upgrading from the 2018 measurement method to the newer 2021 measurement and models methodology. Ultimately, the project was formally revoked under section 30 of the CFI Rule on 20 July 2026.
