This month we look down into Natural Capital &  Monetisation

What is Natural Capital?

 Natural capital comprises Earth’s natural assets (farms soil, air, water, flora and fauna) and the ecosystem services resulting from them, which make human life possible.

Why is Natural Capital important?

Building and preserving natural capital can improve landscape resilience and reduce the impacts of climate change through the storing of carbon from the atmosphere, while increases productivity and profitability across the farm quadruple bottom line factors: economically - environmentally - socially

 Building and preserving natural capital through regenerative agriculture 

We work together with partners and clients to preserve and enhance natural capital in the Australian landscape and create long-term farm investment value.

How we monetise Natural Capital

Caring for Country takes good management - people - and money. Farmers to be rewarded economically for Caring For Country has been the missing link. As a society we cannot expect our farmers to take on this financial burden on their own.

Through the use of innovative strategies, market maturity and the utilisation of new technologies, infrastructure and systems, natural capital is improving agricultural returns and driving social change. 

Measuring and reporting on outcomes such as biodiversity and habitat restoration unlocks economical revenue streams from funds to build natural capital for all society to benefit.

 Investing in Australian Agricultural real assets as a Nature-based solution can proactively respond to climate change, protect our natural resources and provide a sustainable pathway to healthy food security. 

Australian Agriculture has the potential to play a crucial role in providing financially tenable solutions to the worlds health and well being of environmental and social issues as it is directly related to climate, biodiversity, soil fertility, land remediation and human health. Implementing successful Nature-based solutions in agriculture to respond to climate change requires action based on science and on farm creativity and skill.

 Australian Agriculture is directly engaged with climate change, biodiversity, soil fertility and land degradation, it holds the key to bringing together or bridging often fragmented stakeholders – resource managers, producers, academia, value-chain operators, advocates, policymakers and local communities.
