Regional green house gas emissions in clover grass - wheat systems, joint project
Description:
In the project typical regional green house gas (GHG) emission factors of organic and conventional cropped winter-wheat shall be determined as well as emission factors of crop rotations with clover grass in critical climatic phases. The results will be used to improve the National Inventory Reports for the German Greenhouse Gas Inventory reports under the United Nations Framework for the Convention on Climate Change (UNFFCCC). Further the results are used for the developement of adequate management rules for the reduction of GHG emission in crop rotations with crop rotations.
