Farmers can gain profit from ETS.

Maximimise Potential.

Farmers in a few years will have to pay their share off the ETS. It's a true fact that New Zealand dairy farmers producing natural milk are always going to require the use of precious resources, and will always produce an unavoidable carbon footprint. To offset this carbon footprint, The New Zealand Government needs to allow farmers to harvest carbon credits from their pastoral land. By providing carbon credit incentives to farmers to increase the amount of carbon that can be stored in biomass and soil organic matter, a good carbon sub sequencer. This will also encourage farmers to think and manage their farms differently, to gain their farms maximum profit potential. Allowing farmers to earn supplemental income from the amount of carbon that can be stored in biomass and soil organic matter. Farmers will have two sources of income, In the form off milk production from their cows and carbon credits from their pasture. By maximising this potential a enterprising dairy farmer could also become carbon natural while still producing good milk solids.
