Using the cap-and-trade approach has generated revenues from auctions to invest in our transition to carbon neutrality.&nbsp; That\u2019s been especially important for California agriculture, where nearly one billion dollars in total investments have gone to climate smart ag practices and programs,\u201d said Secretary Ross. \u201cWe cannot do our work without research and technical assistance.&nbsp; Our friends in academia are critically important to generating that objective, evidence-based science and data, as well as the social science of how behavior changes happen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secretary Ross also stressed the significance of the private sector and the importance of voluntary incentive approaches to help make a difference. \u201cBut in all of this, we cannot forget the technical assistance providers,\u201d added Secretary Ross, and thanked the <a href=\"https:\/\/gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nrcs.usda.gov%2Fconservation-basics%2Fconservation-by-state%2Fcalifornia&amp;data=05%7C02%7Cjay.vanrein%40cdfa.ca.gov%7C87f28a442533451a31f408dc79db257d%7Cafdfd251a22248978cbaae68cabfffbc%7C0%7C0%7C638519229337216571%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=UW%2BPS2PqKMtKvKHtdFs%2BaQ3vMpV9t%2B2rRVn9Er6kcYI%3D&amp;reserved=0\">USDA California Natural Resources Conservation Service<\/a> among other organizations providing technical assistance to farmers, ranchers and the agricultural community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the summit\u2019s key theme regarding methane reduction, Secretary Ross thanked dairy farmers in California for the progress the state has made in reducing livestock methane emissions. \u201cOur dairy families have been leaders; they\u2019ve done it with developers of dairy digesters, and they\u2019ve done it with Resource Conservation District, Cooperative Extension and others to really support the adoption of these alternative manure management practices.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On methane reduction targets, Secretary Ross said that since 2016, to meet the 40 percent reduction goal, California is approximately halfway there with dairy digesters. And the state, which has invested $227 million for 140 projects, with $489 million in matching funds altogether with alternative manure and healthy soils programs, has helped reduce, over a ten-year period, approximately 25 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robert Bonnie, Under Secretary for Farm Production and Conservation at the USDA, followed Secretary Ross and provided a national perspective on enteric methane. Secretary Ross and Under Secretary Bonnie helped set the stage for a series of informative <a href=\"https:\/\/gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcaes.ucdavis.edu%2Fsites%2Fg%2Ffiles%2Fdgvnsk1721%2Ffiles%2Finline-files%2FState%2520of%2520the%2520Science%2520Summit%25202024_May_14_24.pdf&amp;data=05%7C02%7Cjay.vanrein%40cdfa.ca.gov%7C87f28a442533451a31f408dc79db257d%7Cafdfd251a22248978cbaae68cabfffbc%7C0%7C0%7C638519229337222766%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=ZF5D8%2BPZ0HNu4hky1LH%2BgyqhZnztYtBMMaeTum%2Fy4dM%3D&amp;reserved=0\">presentations and panel discussions<\/a>, with an engaging fireside conversation, moderated by Dean Helene Dillard, of the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at UC Davis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the Summit continues with more sessions and opportunities for collaboration.
