In 2024, Australian Agricultural reported total carbon emissions of approximately 845,083,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 686,998,000 kg CO2e, which encompasses direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 158,085,000 kg CO2e, covering indirect emissions from the value chain. Notably, the Scope 3 emissions include contributions from capital goods, processing of sold products, purchased goods and services, and downstream transportation and distribution. In the preceding years, emissions have shown fluctuations: in 2023, total emissions were about 650,988,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 620,004,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a rise in emissions from 2022, where total emissions were around 529,349,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Australian Agricultural has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context. As the agricultural sector faces increasing scrutiny regarding its environmental impact, Australian Agricultural's future climate strategies will be crucial in addressing sustainability challenges.
