Australia’s farm leaders dropped the 2050 net-zero goal, citing high costs, trade risks, and unfair burden on farmers.
Nationals Leader David Littleproud criticized Australia’s net-zero-by-2050 target, calling it unfair to farmers who’ve already cut 95% of emissions through land management, risking 5.1 million more hectares.
He said Australia is the only country requiring farmers to report scope 3 emissions, unlike the U.S., and denounced the $9 trillion cost of the plan, citing independent studies.
The Nationals and Liberal Party dropped the target, citing unaffordable $1.2 million first-year costs and concerns over trade, farm viability, and biosecurity.
Littleproud opposed recent U.S. beef imports from Mexico and Canada, calling the move politically driven and a biosecurity risk due to inadequate traceability and lack of scientific review.
