Project code: 2823ABS034
Contract period: 01.04.2024 - 30.06.2027
Budget: 180,213 Euro
Purpose of research: Inventory & Assessment
Keywords: crop production, food security, climate change adaptation, cultivation, modeling, forecast, economy

The aim of the KARO project is the region-specific further development of existing crop production systems in their regional context to make them more resilient to climate change phenomena. In the context of the necessary adaptations, the performance and competitiveness of farm enterprises is to be supported primarily by obtaining an improved understanding of climate change-related risks and by developing and demonstrating possible actions to handle these risks. The actions to handle are developed under the premise and along the fields of action of the Arable Farming Strategy 2035. In this approach, the interplay of climatic, crop, phytosanitary and environmental risks is considered and ultimately subsumed in the business economic risk. This subproject provides the central economic evaluation of the investigated activities. The forecastet yields, the adaptions in cropping procedures, especially concerning soil preparation, fertilization and plant protection will be combined in the database ADEBAR(BE). This will lead to sophisticated profit and risk indicators. Together with the indicators of the project partners the cropping strategies will evaluated concerning trade offs. The promising options will be further optimized concering their performance.
