OVERSEER Nutrient budgets provides a method for understanding nutrient cycling, including greenhouse gas emissions, at farm scale. A farm scale tool can provide for assessment of the effects of different management scenarios and provide for farm scale greenhouse gas accounting. To help policy developers understand its potential role in meeting the national GHG commitments, more information is needed on how well OVERSEER is aligned to national inventory methods and what is required to ensure on-going confidence in it being representative of farm scale GHG losses, and what systems are required to ensure it remains aligned with the national inventory while at the same time being current with changing farm practices and mitigations.
