Natural Capital Matters at Wilmot Field Day 2023

You’ve reached your destination. Making an entrance at Wilmot.

Last week the celebrated Wilmot Cattle Co held their annual Field Day over two days on the Wilmot regenerative farm at Ebor in NSW. 

Mulloon Institute’s CEO Carolyn Hall, GM Jono Forrest and QLD Regen Ag Consultant Sam Skeat joined 300 delegates from right across Australia to explore and celebrate farmers building natural capital. With soil carbon being a focus point of discussion, attendees were reminded that soil carbon is only one part of a healthy system – water cycles, biodiversity and the social aspects of small business, families and communities are all interlinked as part of the natural capital equation. 

Also on the table for discussion was the use of data as a key asset to monetising natural capital, and the linking of art in the practice of using soil samples and science to map landscapes.

Wilmot Cattle Co was proud to announce that all the food for the Gala dinner on Wednesday night was supplied by one farm! 

The event was also the launch of Atlas Carbon, part of the Machdoc Ag Group which also incorporates Wilmot Cattle Co and Maia Grazing. Atlas Carbon provides tools, insight and support for farmers to integrate carbon sequestration into the farming business, driven by years of data-driven evidence.

The Mulloon team thank Wilmot Cattle Co, Stuart Austin and his team, Maia Grazing, and Carmel Onions and CBA for another great time at Wilmot.
