With input costs remaining high, a new national benchmark is helping nursery businesses understand where their greenhouse gas emissions come from and identify opportunities to use materials and energy more efficiently, which may help reduce costs over time.

Delivered in collaboration with thinkstep-anz, Hort Innovation and the Australian Government, the first national benchmark of its kind for the sector draws on FY2025 data collected from seven nurseries across five Australian states.
