RegenCo BCHM Northern Aggregation #1

RegenCo BCHM Northern Aggregation #1 is a Beef Cattle Herd Management project spanning across multiple properties in the Northern Territory, Queensland, and Western Australia. It was registered on 14 February 2022, and while the exact combined project area is unknown, it operates as a large-scale aggregation across outback cattle stations in Northern Australia.

Beef cattle herd management projects generate carbon credits by reducing the methane emissions intensity of cattle. Standard methodology requirements involve adopting new management practices to make the herd more efficient, such as improving pasture and feeding strategies, altering herd demographics, and culling unproductive livestock to improve the herd's overall weight-to-age ratio.

The vast Northern Australian region where this aggregation is located is primarily utilised for extensive cattle grazing operations. The environment features a mix of tropical savanna and semi-arid conditions, characterised by highly variable monsoonal rainfall in the wet season and prolonged dry spells in the winter months. Soils across this broad geographic area are diverse, typically ranging from the heavy cracking clays of the Barkly Tableland and central Queensland to the sandy loams, pindan, and red earths found throughout Western Australia's pastoral regions.

This project specifically focuses on changing the ratio of livestock classes to increase total annual liveweight gain, increasing the overall weight-to-age ratio, and lowering the proportion of unproductive older animals. These measures successfully reduce the greenhouse gas emissions per kilogram of beef liveweight produced. Notably, public registry data indicates that as of mid-2026, this aggregation has been highly active, successfully generating 36,649 Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs).
