For Landholders – Are you a landholder interested in understanding the natural capital value of your property and accessing new income streams through carbon, biodiversity, or environmental markets? See opportunities for landholders
For Project Developers and Investors – Are you a carbon project developer, biodiversity credit buyer, NRM organisation, or environmental investor looking to source suitable land and qualified landholder participants? See how KG2 supports developers
For Landholders
Your land may hold significant value beyond agricultural production. Carbon sequestration, biodiversity credits, environmental plantings, and native seedbank contributions are all emerging income opportunities for Australian landholders, but knowing where to start can be complex.
KG2’s Natural Capital Marketplace helps you understand what your property is worth in environmental markets, connects you with credible project developers and investors, and supports you through the qualification and engagement process from first conversation to project establishment.
What KG2 offers landholders:
Farm-level identification and measurement of natural capital assets using remote sensing and on-ground data. Plain-language awareness of the commercial opportunities available for your property type and location. Feasibility assessment to help you understand whether your land qualifies for carbon, biodiversity, or other environmental projects. Direct connection to a curated ecosystem of reputable project developers, investors, and environmental service providers.
There is no obligation to participate. KG2’s role is to ensure you have the information and connections you need to make the right decision for your land and your business.

For Project Developers and Investors
Finding suitable land and engaging willing landholders is one of the biggest challenges in scaling nature-based projects in Australia. KG2 solves this by combining Australia’s largest independent farmer database with proprietary remote sensing and geospatial analysis to identify and qualify properties that meet your project criteria, then engaging landholders directly on your behalf.
KG2’s Farmer Engagement Model for project developers covers four stages:
Market Research and Opportunity Mapping
KG2 conducts nationwide natural capital market research to identify regions, farm types, and landholder profiles with the highest potential for project participation. This includes remote sensing analysis of land use, vegetation cover, soil carbon potential, and environmental indicators at farm level.
Landholder Awareness and Education
We optimise farmer awareness of commercial natural capital opportunities through targeted direct outreach, including phone, digital, and direct mail campaigns drawn from our verified national database. Landholders who are informed are far more likely to engage meaningfully.
Project Feasibility Qualification
KG2 qualifies natural capital project feasibility at the individual farm level, screening for land size, condition, location, and landholder intent before passing leads to your team. This means your pipeline consists of genuinely viable, interested participants rather than cold or unqualified prospects.
Partnership and Connection
Qualified opportunities are connected directly to project developers, investors, and environmental service providers within KG2’s growing ecosystem of strategic partners. We facilitate the introduction and support the relationship through to project establishment.
Frequently asked questions
What is the KG2 Natural Capital Marketplace?

It combines verified landholder data, remote sensing, and direct farmer engagement to identify, qualify, and match opportunities at scale across Australia.
How does KG2 identify suitable properties for natural capital projects?
KG2 uses a combination of remote sensing, geospatial analysis, and its nationwide farmer database to assess land at the property level. This allows KG2 to screen for relevant indicators including vegetation cover, soil carbon potential, land use history, and location before any landholder contact is made, ensuring only qualified opportunities are progressed.
What types of projects does the Marketplace support?
The Marketplace supports a broad range of nature-based and environmental projects including carbon sequestration, biodiversity credits, environmental plantings, native seedbank development, and other natural capital initiatives. KG2 works with project developers, NRM organisations, government agencies, and private environmental investors.
What does participation involve for a landholder?
KG2’s initial engagement is informational and carries no obligation. Landholders are provided with a clear picture of what their property may qualify for, what participation in a project would involve, and who the relevant project partners are. KG2 supports landholders through the process and connects them directly to developers when they are ready to proceed.
Who uses KG2's Natural Capital Marketplace on the developer side?
Carbon and biodiversity project developers, NRM organisations, government agencies, environmental service providers, and private-sector buyers use the Marketplace to source qualified landholder participants, identify suitable properties, and scale their project pipelines efficiently.
