Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Carbon Sequestration and Storage in Agriculture: Discussion

Mr. Fergus Moore:

We can model roughly how much carbon would be sequestered based on different afforestation rates. When we get to the end of a period, we can look back to see exactly what we have done and work out how much carbon we have or have not sequestered based on a reduction in our targets.
