Thank you for your submissions on the Agriculture and Land Sector Plan.
Agriculture and the land will have an important role to play in helping Australia to transition to a net zero economy. A strong, economically efficient, global effort to reduce emissions is in the interest of Australian producers and land managers.
To develop the right plan, we asked for feedback. This feedback helped us understand what is needed or possible for the agriculture and land sectors in terms of emissions reductions and carbon storage.
Your feedback helped ensure the plan is ambitious but achievable.
