Land of opportunities
In the face of growing environmental challenges, the European Green Deal sets ambitious targets for 2030, including strictly protecting 10% of the EU’s land area and expanding organic farming to 25% of agricultural land. To navigate the potentially competing land use demands of these goals, we develop a spatially explicit partial equilibrium model that analyzes the implementation of these targets both independently and concurrently at the EU and …
Combined effects of climate change and agricultural intensification on soil erosion in uphill shifting cultivation in Northeast India
Shifting cultivation will face increasing pressure from erosion‐related land degradation caused by rising cultivation intensities and climate change. However, empirical knowledge about future trends of soil erosion and thus land degradation in shifting cultivation systems is limited. We use the Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC) model to first explore the combined effects of climate change and agricultural intensification on soil eros…
Sustainable agriculture in Northeastern India
India’s monsoon dependent agriculture is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, and inadequate policies contribute to socio-economic difficulties in farming communities. Many current policies and strategies to combat climate change impacts are focused on technical aspects of adaptations whereas little research is done to understand the socio-economic dimensions, particularly the perspectives of farmers. To address this gap, we conduc…
A stakeholders’ pathway towards a future land use and food system in Germany
Food systems contribute considerably to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and influence land use. In Germany, many strategies have been proposed by policy-makers to reduce negative impacts and make the food system more sustainable. It is unclear how close the suggested policies, when bundled, will bring the food and land use system towards the targeted goals; and what stakeholders from non-policy-making organizations consider realistic changes in th…
Preparing for a better future
Many inhabitants of the Northeastern region of India (NER) are poor and have to rely on subsistence farming for a livelihood and are therefore vulnerable to negative impacts of climate change. To enhance the resilience of the farmers and the entire agricultural sector of NER, stakeholders need to acquire additional and/or specialized competencies to deal with the negative impacts of climate change. In this study, we systematically identify and pr…
Computing stochastic Pareto frontiers between economic and environmental goals for a semi-arid agricultural production region in Austria
Multi-objective programming is frequently used in agro-environmental management studies to find compromises between competing policy objectives. We develop an integrated modelling framework to compute stochastic Pareto frontiers using realizations of three climate scenarios (SIMILAR, DRY, WET) for the semi-arid Seewinkel region in Austria. The stochastic Pareto frontiers relate net benefits of agricultural production (NB) to three environmental g…
Adaptation to climate change and its impacts on food productivity and crop income
Farmers' perceptions of and adaptation strategies to climate change and their determinants
Climate change is a global environmental threat to all economic sectors, particularly the agricultural sector. Pakistan is one of the countries negatively affected by climate change due to its high exposure to extreme events and low adaptive capacity. In Pakistan, farmers are the primary stakeholders in agriculture and are more at risk due to climate vulnerability. Based on farm household data from 450 households collected from three districts in…
The dynamic soil organic carbon mitigation potential of European cropland
Allocation of European wetland restoration options for systematic conservation planning
Global land-use implications of first and second generation biofuel targets
Price of CO 2 emissions and use of wood in Europe
The impact of climate change on aquatic risk from agricultural pesticides in the US
We investigate how climate change may affect the acute and chronic toxicity risk to aquatic species from agricultural pesticides in 32 States of the US. We combine climate change projections from the Canadian and Hadley climate model, statistically estimated relationships between pesticide applications and climate and weather variables, and the environmental risk indicator REXTOX developed by the OECD. On average, we find that climate change is l…
Effects of bioenergy policies and targets on European wetland restoration options
Greenhouse gas mitigation in agriculture
Agricultural lands occupy 37% of the earth's land surface. Agriculture accounts for 52 and 84% of global anthropogenic methane and nitrous oxide emissions. Agricultural soils may also act as a sink or source for CO 2 , but the net flux is small. Many agricultural practices can potentially mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the most prominent of which are improved cropland and grazing land management and restoration of degraded lands and cul…
