Reduction of C02 emissions in rBilk production in Baden-Württemberg
Project
Project code: EIP-Agri-2021-BW-LPTKW
Contract period: 01.01.2021
- 31.12.2023
Budget: 394,551 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
Keywords: farming practice/activity, climate change
The aim of the projecf is the application, evaluation and interpretation of the results of a C02 balance of 700 participating dairy farms. Building on this, opportunities for improvement are shown and farmers are supported in reducing their GHG emissions through active advice. With an existing system for recording C02 emissions according to the BEK Standard, 700 dairy farms from Baden-Württemberg (milk suppiiers to OMIRA Oberland Milchverwertung GmbH) are assessed annually. The savings potentials are identified together with the farmers and implemented in practice. The advisory activity is carried out by OMIRA Milchunion Süd GmbH. An elementary part of the process is the support provided by the Baden-Württemberg milk testing ring. An external auditing standard will be developed and implemented together. This auditing can take place directly as part of the QM milk audits that have already taken place.
