Long-term climate mitigation policies for the agri-food sector (AGRILOP)
Project
Project code: TI-KB-08-KB-2021-2375
Contract period: 01.01.2021
- 30.04.2025
Purpose of research: Inventory & Assessment
The European Green Deal and the Farm-to-Fork strategies highlight the importance of market-based instruments to alleviate climate change. A quantitative assessment of different instruments is crucial for successful climate policies. Agriculture is not only a victim of climate change, but can also contribute to climate mitigation. On the one hand, greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture could be substantially reduced; on the other hand, agriculture could play an essential role in carbon sequestration. Yet, what market-based instruments are required to facilitate both processes? And what implications do these instruments have on production, trade, welfare and carbon leakage? This project aims to provide a quantitative assessment of alternative instruments to ensure the successful and cost-effective implementation of climate-protecting strategies in agriculture.
