Carbon credits... what are they and where do the opportunities lie? In the latest Financial Bloke podcast, Ben Law catches up with Dr Terry McCosker to discuss what a carbon credit actually is and how they have the potential to substantially improve the overall profitability and sustainability of some farming operations.

Dr Terry McCosker is a Founding Director of RCS Australia which for over 35 years has provided integrated training, education and advisory service to the agricultural sector. He is an internationally acclaimed teacher and has worked in research and property management in both the government and private sectors for almost 55 years.

It has been said his ideas took farming out of a war with nature into an association with it. He introduced Australian farmers to the concept of ecosystem health and developed methods of measuring it, alongside financial health.

Terry has more recently focused his attention on using his experience, education and expertise to assist the farming community to identify and make the most of the opportunities carbon credits could offer.
