- Agricultural trade policies (Changes in agricultural trade policies are applied to the corresponding quota (export or import quota) or border taxes., Component: Agricultural economy)
- Apply emission and energy intensity standards (Apply emission intensity standards for e.g. cars (gCO2/km), power plants (gCO2/kWh) or appliances (kWh/hour)., Component: Energy conversion, Energy demand)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- Financing climate policy (Developed countries could provide financial resources to assist developing countries by implementation of mitigation and adaptation policies. To mobilise these funds, several mechanisms exist, of which the effect can be analysed, Component: Climate policy)
- Hydropower (Construction of dams and reservoirs in rivers, Component: Aquatic biodiversity)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- Sanitation measures (Increase the access to improved sanitation, and connection to sewage systems; institution of wastewater treatment installations; recycling of human waste for substitution of synthetic fertilisers., Component: Nutrients)
