Louis, this is an easily readable and concise summary of the findings from your Waikato sites and also provides helpful recommendations for farmers. I an very pleased to note that the focus is on full farm carbon balance. In the past, we have had too much focus on studies of net carbon exchange using eddy covariance without emphasising that this is only part of the story to address the braider outcome of changes in carbon stocks.I especially like the diagram showing the relative differences in carbon balance between the three farms as this is a simple explanation of the concepts. I am sure that the readers will welcome this article, David
