Showing below up to 15 results in range #1 to #15.
- Afforestation policies (Increasing forest area to sequester CO2 in biomass which helps to achieve stringent climate targets., Component: Agricultural economy)
- Agricultural trade policies (Changes in agricultural trade policies are applied to the corresponding quota (export or import quota) or border taxes., Component: Agricultural economy)
- Change in grazing intensity (Change in grazing intensity, usually more intensive. This would require better management of grasslands, including for example the use of grass-clover mixtures and fertilisers, bringing the length of the grazing season in tune with the period of grass production, and rotations., Component: Land-use allocation)
- Changes in consumption and diet preferences (Interventions that target consumption changes or changes in dietary preferences, Component: Agricultural economy)
- Changes in crop and livestock production systems (General changes in crop and livestock production systems, e.g. more efficient production methods to create higher production per unit of input, or other systems like organic farming, Component: Agricultural economy)
- Closing the yield gap (This intervention increases actual yields (reduces the gap between potential and actual yields), usually realized by better management., Component: Agricultural economy)
- Enlarge protected areas (Increase in areas with protected status, as well the size of the areas as the numer of parks., Component: Land-use allocation)
- Implementation of biofuel targets (Policies to enhance the use of biofuels, especially in the transport sector. In the Agricultural economy component only 'first generation' crops are taken into account. The policy is implemented as a budget-neutral policy from government perspective, e.g. a subsidy is implemented to achieve a certain share of biofuels in fuel production and an end-user tax is applied to counterfinance the implemented subsidy., Component: Agricultural economy)
- Implementation of land use planning (Application of zoning laws or cadastres, assigning areas to certain land uses., Component: Land-use allocation)
- Improved irrigation efficiency (Improved irrigation efficiency assumes an increase in the irrigation project efficiency and irrigation conveyance efficiency., Component: Water)
- Improved rainwater management (Improved rainwater management assumes a decrease in the evaporative losses from rainfed agriculture and the creation of small scale reservoirs to harvest rainwater during the wet period and use it during a dryer period. Both measures lead to more efficient use of water and increased yields on rainfed fields., Component: Water)
- Increased storage capacity (Increasing storage capacity assumes that the total water volume stored in large reservoirs will increase. This can either be established by an increase of the capacity of existing reservoirs, or by building new reservoirs., Component: Water)
- Non-CO2 taxation policies (Taxes greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture to achieve cost-optimal mitigation in the agricultural sector., Component: Agricultural economy)
- REDD policies (The objective of REDD policies it to reduce land-use related emissions by protecting existing forests in the world; The implementation of REDD includes also costs of policies., Component: Agricultural economy)
- Reduction of waste/losses (Reduction of losses in the agro-food chain and waste after consumption., Component: Agricultural economy)
