Yes that would be interesting. Does Carbon Farm buy credits? Will you have any to sell? But at NZ$4 a unit hardly a fortune?
One problem I see is that once one has improved one's soil/land, you get no more credits/income. Of course one still has the non-monitory benefits. But if one lets the soil degrade, presumably you would have to buy credits?
One Q: If one continues virtuous husbandry of soil, can soil depth be increased? So there would be no reason for C sequestering to reduce over time? IE can we grow soil indefinitely, and if so at what rate?
PS: At a brief glance, your climate averages seem pretty similar to the lower parts of Wales, with Wales being a little more seasonal, I guess because you're 6degs nearer the equator.
