Legal aspects of contract solutions to foster the provision of agri-environment-climate goods : summary for stakeholders
2022
Runge, Tania | Langlais, Alexandra | Cardwell, Michael N.
This practice abstract is based on the CONSOLE “Report on legal aspects on contractual solutions for the delivery of public goods” (D1.5), and has been prepared with the aim of making available in a nutshell the wide array of issues which the Legal Report has revealed. It is addressed to practitioners, including farmers and forest owners, interested or involved in the design and management of contract solutions directed to the provision of environmental goods and services. Particular focus is placed on result-based and collective contract solutions, both being relatively novel approaches eligible for EU co-funding. Another contract type looked at is the land tenure contract with environmental clauses. With the increasing share of rented agricultural land across the EU, it is likely that such contracts will become more prominent in the future. The fourth contract type is the value-chain contract where the business partners agree on additional environmental or climate requirements going beyond legal standards.
