Traditional land managementto reduce emissions

Savanna Fire

Traditional cool fire management reduces emissions, stores carbon, and generates carbon credits.

Across Northern Australia, Traditional Custodians lead savanna fire management using strategic, early‑dry‑season cool burns.

These practices reduce emissions from intense late‑season wildfires and support carbon storage through renewed vegetation growth.

Carbon credits are issued annually based on independently verified emissions reductions and carbon sequestration outcomes.

Key benefits

Key benefits

 

  • Cuts greenhouse gas emissions by preventing intense late‑season wildfires across savanna landscapes.
  • Enhances land productivity through healthier vegetation growth following strategic early‑season fire management.
  • Strengthens Indigenous cultural practices through Traditional Custodian leadership in land and fire stewardship.
  • Supports rural and remote economies through long‑term employment and carbon project participation.

 

 

Savanna fire methods provide a proven, scalable climate solution across northern Australia, integrating emissions reduction and carbon storage within long‑established land management practices suited to tropical savanna environments.

Eligibility
Find out more about eligibility and what’s involved
Every carbon farming method has specific eligibility criteria and requires some changes to land management to deliver measurable outcomes. These will vary depending on your property, current practices, and the method that best fits.
Eligibility depends on factors such as location, land history, vegetation, and current management practices
Projects typically involve adapting or enhancing existing practices to store carbon or reduce emissions over time
Participation is designed to work alongside your broader land management and business goals
Each method has defined requirements, monitoring, and reporting obligations under regulatory frameworks
Our specialist team will work with you to assess suitability, explain requirements clearly, and guide next steps
You don’t need to work this out alone, we’ll help you understand what’s possible and what’s involved before you commit. For more detailed information, get in touch below.
