GRDC Grains Research Update, online – Nitrogen and its impact on the greenhouse gas footprint of grain production in the northern grains region of Australia

Summary

Nitrogen and its impact on the greenhouse gas footprint of grain production in the northern grains region of Australia.

Topics

• What processes affect the greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint of N in northern farming systems and how well does modelling predict this? (Peter Grace, Queensland University of Technology)
• Nitrogen loss pathways – how much do we lose and in what form under different situations (Graeme Schwenke, NSW DPI)
• N management strategies and their impact on GHG balance (Lindsay Bell, CSIRO)
• Discussion on implementing lower emissions strategies and implications for how we budget for and supply N in different farming systems
