Dr Suman George from Murdoch’s Centre for Sustainable Farming Systems will lead the project, bringing significant experience in monitoring and verifying greenhouse gas protocols at a landscape level.
“If we can come up with a way of improving the monitoring and then it gets taken up by a region like Southeast Asia and gets adopted – that’d be a huge step forward,” says Dr George.
