Incentivising carbon farming; policy recommendations from the Carbon Farming project. White paper

2021

Farmers can contribute significantly in a positive way to our climate challenges and the climate objectives that have been formulated to reduce Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030 and achieve climate neutrality by 2050. Through improved agricultural management, farmers can remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and store it sustainably in the soil in the form of soil organic carbon (SOC). This type of agricultural practice is called carbon farming. The Interreg North Sea Region Carbon Farming (CF) project was initiated with the aim to increase the awareness of the possibilities of carbon farming and to motivate farmers to get started with carbon farming by developing new business models.
