[QUOTE="Agrispeed, post: 7568515, member: 10619"] Used the Farm Carbon toolkit and some help from Duchy College. Its a bit daunting to start but not too bad once you get into it. Pasteuriser is electric, we have 1 electric van and 3 diesel ones at the moment, but aim to go all electric in the future. keeping to a 10 mile delivery radius. Processing and delivering produce a lot of carbon, so I would imagine most farms would be fairly low emitters if not sequestering carbon before you take this into account. For some reason many studies forget to include the sequestration of carbon in soils, which conveniently are included in the plant based alternative to dairy, which also often manage to miss the transport emissions too!
