Cotton Farm Carbon · Australia

ACCU-ready carbon baseline. Built for Australian cotton growers.

Snap a few photos, upload your power and diesel bills, and get a NGER-aligned Scope 1/2/3 baseline plus a modelled ACCU pathway — for soil carbon, fertiliser N₂O, and on-farm energy. Designed with the 150+ growers we're meeting at the August 2025 Australian Cotton Conference, Gold Coast.

Soil carbon (sequestration)

Cover cropping, reduced tillage and rotation pathways modelled under the Soil Carbon Method (2021). Indicative 0.15–0.7 tCO₂e per hectare per year, project-dependent.

Fertiliser N₂O (avoidance)

Variable-rate nitrogen, nitrification inhibitors, and split application. Aligns to the developing Reducing GHG from Fertiliser in Irrigated Cotton method.

Energy + diesel displacement

Pump electrification, on-farm solar PPA, and diesel-to-electric pivots — measured against NGA Scope 2 factors for your grid region.

What a grower receives

From a stack of bills to a credit-ready baseline.

01
Upload

Power bill, diesel receipts, fertiliser purchase records, a paddock photo.

02
AI extracts

Annualised kWh, litres, kg N, planted hectares — normalised across billing periods.

03
Baseline + scopes

tCO₂e per bale + Scope 1/2/3 split, mapped to NGER and the National Greenhouse Accounts factors.

04
ACCU pathway

Modelled abatement, ACCU yield band, indicative A$ value, and the registered proponents we can route you to.

Sample case (anonymised)

1,420 ha · Darling Downs · 4,820 tCO₂e/yr baseline

An irrigated cotton operation modelled in our beta produced a 4,820 tCO₂e/yr baseline (0.34 tCO₂e per bale). Across variable-rate nitrogen, cover cropping, electrified pivots and a renewable PPA, the modelled abatement pathway lands at ~1,455 tCO₂e/yr — supporting an indicative 620–1,150 ACCUs per year once registered through a recognised project proponent. At A$32–A$38 per ACCU, that is roughly A$19,800–A$43,700 in gross annual credit revenue, before aggregator fees.

Important — how issuance works

ACCUs are only issued to a registered project by the Clean Energy Regulator. Terminal Carbon delivers the baseline, MRV evidence pack, and warm introductions to registered ACCU aggregators — we do not issue credits ourselves.
