Measurement of paddock-based greenhouse gas emissions from wheat production to improve life cycle assessment of wheat-products

Show/Hide information about this project
Project No.:
DAW00103
Finish date:
Jun/2009
Program:
CCRSPI
Sponsors:
  • Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC)
Locality:
Western Australia

Background

Accurate and reliable data on paddock-based greenhouse gas emissions from WA grain production will allow a life-cycle assessment of greenhouse gas emissions from wheat to bread to identify emissions from pre-farm, on-farm and post-farm elements. This will enable better targetting of greenhouse gas mitigation practices and identify areas of nitrogen use inefficiency to increase grain production efficiency and profitability.

Implication

This will enable better targetting of greenhouse gas mitigation practices and identify areas of nitrogen use inefficiency to increase grain production efficiency and profitability
