Dennis Rodenbaugh LinkedIn Post -Carbon Insetting-Offsetting
“…dairy is in a unique position to help other businesses and industries that are unable to immediately reduce their own GHG emissions. When industries outside the dairy value chain purchase carbon credits from U.S. dairy farmers, it provides an important source of funding and revenue diversification. This is turn enables dairy farmers to continue ongoing reinvestment and adoption of sustainable innovations and technological advancements — further advancing the positive cycle of GHG reduction while providing safe and quality nutrition to families around the globe.”

Considering Carbon Markets? Follow This Advice
Powering a community by what was once considered waste is not only helping the farm’s sustainability efforts, but it’s also generating additional income. Newtrient offers the following advice when exploring the carbon markets.

New Report: California is Pioneering a Pathway to Significant Dairy Methane Reduction
Analysis by UC Davis researchers shows continued implementation of California’s incentive-based dairy methane reduction efforts should, by 2030, achieve the full 40% reduction goal.

EPA likely will have to speak up on CAFOs
CAFOs under The Clean Water Act is recognized as “point sources” of water pollution. Food and Water Watch wants to restrict the discharges from them into rivers and streams through a more compelling regulatory system.

Big potential for dairy and carbon
Dairy farms can generate carbon credits from multiple places, whether by converting to no-till and planting cover crops, putting in a manure digester to cut down on nutrient emissions, making dietary changes to the total mixed ration or feeding more additives to lower enteric emissions (burps) from cows, or by just being more energy efficient or using less fossil fuels. “These are the four areas with the biggest impact,” Boehl said. “These are the all the opportunities for a potential market. Any area where you can reduce carbon is also an area where you can capture carbon credits.”

DEQ REQUESTS COMMENTS ON PETITION TO PROMULGATE DAIRY AIR EMISSIONS REGULATORY PROGRAM
The Environmental Quality Commission has received a petition for rulemaking to create a dairy air emissions regulatory program. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality invites public comment on whether EQC should direct DEQ to deny the petition, grant the petition and initiate rulemaking proceedings, or pursue another action.

USDA’s New Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities Program Benefits Dairy
On September 14, 2022, Secretary Vilsack announced USDA is investing up to $2.8 billion in 70 selected projects under the first pool of the Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities funding opportunity. According to the USDA, this new program will expand markets for America’s climate-smart commodities, leverage the greenhouse gas benefits of climate-smart commodity production, and provide direct, meaningful benefits to production agriculture, including for small and underserved producers.

Can Earthworms Solve the Water Scarcity Problem?
Traditional wastewater treatment is energy-intensive and generates around 5 percent of all greenhouse-gas emissions (GHG). In comparison, vermifiltration requires almost no electricity, thereby reducing GHG emissions by 91 percent. Astoundingly, earthworms remove more than 80 percent of nitrites in wastewater and reduce methane emissions by an even higher percentage.

‘This technology will be game-changing’: N2 Applied’s slurry treatment tech earns award nomination
The agri-tech company says its technology holds the key to locally-made, sustainable fertilizer, which could free farmers from their dependence on expensive chemical alternatives.

Bringing More Than Milk to the Market: A Look at RNG
With the drive to become carbon neutral by 2050, America’s dairy farms bring more than milk to the market. They are looking to exchange carbon credits for dollars. The Caballeros milk 5,200 cows in a 72-cow rotary and anticipate generating 214 MMBtu of renewable natural gas daily from their manure digester.
