- Changes in feed ration (Change in the share of grass in the feed rations of cattle, sheep and goats, usually a decrease, meaning grass will be substituted by feed crops and the livestock system will be more intensive., Component: Livestock systems)
- Energy tax or subsidiy (Changing the prices through energy tax or subsidy for the various energy carriers influences the choice of technology and thus the level of emissions., Component: Energy supply)
- Expanding Reduced Impact Logging (Increasing the share of produced wood yielded with Reduced Impact Logging (RIL) practices instead of conventional logging practices., Component: Forest management)
- Implementation of sustainability criteria in bio-energy production (Sustainability criteria that could become binding for dedicated bio-energy production, such as the restrictive use of water-scarce or degraded areas., Component: Energy supply, Land cover and land use)
- Improvement of feed conversion (Improvement of feed conversion ratio of small ruminants, such as sheep and goats. This means other breeds will be used that need less grass to produce the same amount of meat., Component: Livestock systems)
- Increase forest plantations (Increase the use of wood from highly productive wood plantations instead of wood from (semi-) natural forests., Component: Forest management)
- Increased livestock productivity (A change in production characteristics, such as milk production per animal, carcass weight and off-take rates, which will also have an impact on the feed conversion ratio; in general, this will be lower in more productive animals, Component: Livestock systems)
- Intensification or extensification of livestock systems (A change in the distribution of the production over pastoral and mixed systems; usually to a larger share of the production in mixed systems, which inherently changes the overall feed conversion ratios of ruminants., Component: Livestock systems)
- Intensification/extensification of livestock systems (A change in the distribution of the production over pastoral and mixed systems; usually to a larger share of the production in mixed systems, which inherently changes the overall feed conversion ratios of ruminants., Component: Livestock systems)
- More sustainable forest management (Sustainable forest management aims for maintaining long-term harvest potential and good ecological status of forests (e.g. the nutrient balance and biodiversity). This can be implemented by (i) enlarging the return period when a forest can be harvested again; (ii) only using certain fractions of the harvested biomass and leave the remaining part in the forests., Component: Forest management)
- Production targets for energy technologies (Production targets for energy technologies can be set to force technologies through a learning curve., Component: Energy supply)
- Restrictions on fuel trade (As part of energy security policies, fuel trade between different regions can be blocked., Component: Energy supply)
