Fonterra and Nestle are running a project trying to achieve a net zero farm.
The pilot, run with Dairy Trust Taranaki, aims to create New Zealand’s first commercially viable net zero dairy farm within ten years.
Since 2022, the Fonterra-owned 290ha farm has achieved an approximate 27% reduction in absolute emissions and a 5.5% reduction in emissions intensity.
I spoke to Talia Grala, environment programme manger at Fonterra, about the project.
Have a look at a press release about the project here.
