Video: Exploring the AgriSuite Greenhouse Gas Decision Support Tool

The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) has developed a free online feature for farmers to help them measure their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on-farm and explore options for reducing their carbon footprint.

In this webinar, you'll hear from James Dyck, an OMAFRA engineer who helped design and build the tool now available on AgriSuite. Anyone interested can use the tool to input custom details about their farm operation at https://agrisuite.omafra.gov.on.ca/ and by selecting the Greenhouse Gas option.

You'll also benefit from a step-by-step walk-through of the tool from Norm Lamothe, a farmer outside Peterborough who has used the tool to make decisions on his own farm and assess the impact of different mitigation practices.
