The aim of this research is to design an economically sound policy strategy for making the Australian agriculture sector carbon neutral by 2040. This strategy will provide policy makers with a menu of policy packages to improve the sector’s international competitiveness, in the context of growing demands from consumers and international markets for low emission products while meeting the challenges of a changing climate. To assist in developing this strategic knowledge a national-scale quantitative economic model will be developed. Given the absence of a clear national strategy for agricultural GHG emissions and the growing global urgency addressing climate change, this research fills an important gap and comes at an opportune time.

这项研究的目的是设计一项经济上合理的政策战略，以便到2040年使澳大利亚农业部门实现碳中和。这一战略将为决策者提供一揽子政策，以提高该部门的国际竞争力，满足消费者和国际市场对低排放产品日益增长的需求，同时应对气候变化的挑战。为了帮助发展这一战略知识，将开发一个全国规模的量化经济模型。鉴于缺乏明确的农业温室气体排放国家战略，以及应对气候变化的全球紧迫性日益增加，这项研究填补了一个重要的空白，并且恰逢其时。
