Lindsay Carbon Project 6

Lindsay Carbon Project 6 is a soil carbon sequestration project located approximately 30 kilometers west of the town of Augathella in the Murweh Shire of Queensland. Registered on March 12, 2024, the project covers a land area of 372.86 hectares. The project is situated within the Mulga Lands bioregion, an area predominantly utilized for grazing sheep and cattle, which aligns with the project's operational focus on integrating carbon farming with existing agricultural systems.

The project operates under the 2021 Soil Carbon methodology (Estimation of Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration using Measurement and Models). This method involves implementing specific land management activities, such as altering stocking rates, grazing duration, or intensity, to actively promote soil vegetation cover and improve overall soil health. These changes are designed to increase the amount of carbon stored in the soil profile, which is then measured and modelled to generate Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs).

Environmentally, the Augathella region is characterized by a semi-arid climate with a mean annual rainfall of approximately 490mm. The soil landscape in this area typically consists of red earths (Kandosols) on the plains and grey or brown cracking clays (Vertosols) in alluvial areas. These soil types support the native mulga vegetation and pasture grasses that are essential for the project's grazing strategies. The project is developed by Agriprove Solutions, a leading service provider in the Australian soil carbon sector, and appears to be part of a larger aggregation of projects given the numerical designation in its title.
