The Climate Friendly
Farming Research & Demonstration Project is a project of Washington
State University's Center for Sustaining Agriculture and Natural
Resources which seeks to understand the interconnections between
climate change, greenhouse gas emissions and agriculture in an effort
to reduce agricultural emissions of greenhouse gases, improve soil
carbon sequestration of carbon dioxide, and develop bioenergy, biofuels
and bioproducts from agriculture that offset the combustion of fossil
fuel carbon.
