its amazing how these tests and research or peer research ( discussing with others in the same area of science ) can lead to facts and discoveries . Galileo the 17th century scientist who discovered how the planets revolved around the sun , said " science isnt science unless it is discussed " .

Thanks mate, I'm flattered but I've also got huge respect for Tim Lee and Pete his cameraman (Landline) and other ABC guys I've bumped into filming educational stuff, they have been amazing mentors.

Thanks for bringing the cutting edge of agriculture. Fascinating work being done.

Good morning, Tim, WOW, that is amazing. I am always impressed with the people we have in this country. Rather than be hammered by the Greenies complaining about farmers. These guys are really thinking outside the wood chip pile. Just a thought, if those researchers are not Australian citizens. Best get them sorted so we can keep them. They all have Australian accents already.

How to make profitable use of Forestry slash that otherwise is left to be fuel for wildfires or weight behind flash floods. Also, relieved to learn our Moos are not villains but part of a carbon sequestering ecosystem. Many thanks. 👍 Now, how to moderate methane emissions from our much needed Wetlands!

love the message!

Excellent 👍🏼

If grass is not eaten it rots with methane being produced.

as opposed to regrowing post grazing and sequestering carbon

"Agricultural waste" doesn't exist! it's all soil food.I also don't know what ag process produces wood chips as "waste". That's more likely just ex-trees, a fact which makes large-scale bio-char a no-go except where deforestation is desired.

Nice point Greg. We are currently using wood chip because that's what's available. But we can process any waste biomass: nut shells, fruit pips, etc

Forestry plantations generally have wood chips as a waste product as they plant trees think when young and then thin out 2 to 3 times per growth before harvest of the end trees. The ground 8s then replanted like any other crop.

@@avid6186 20-30% of whole logs through a sawmill process end up as wood chip (they can't make boards from the curved bits), then there is about 1 million tonnes of waste biomass collected just in Sydney each year from trimming trees (like around power lines), then there is end of life and building waste timber streams before we look at agricultural residues. When looked as a whole managed plantation forestry is good for the environment and even better if the leftover material is transformed into a stable form of carbon for over a thousand years.

I recently did a story on super forest plantations that beautifully summed up the nature of waste. They are composting it. Turning it into biochar is WAY quicker and value adds. Looking like “waste” is another trigger word…..
