# AgriSA says atmospheric emission targets are on the horizon for the agriculture sector. According to a draft report published by the Department of Forestry, Fisheries, and the Environment, the agricultural industry will need to meet a provisional emissions target equivalent to 3.4-million tons of carbon dioxide from next year to 2030. The report outlines several measures, including new legislation and strategic frameworks, to achieve these targets. According to AgriSA, the targets must balance the needs of both large and small-scale farmers while aligning with South Africa’s climate goals.
