Biodiversity in Standards and Labels for the Food Industry (LIFEBioStandards)
Date du début: 1 août 2016, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2020,
Background
The EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 underlines the importance of motivating the corporate sector to reduce its negative impacts on biodiversity. Intensive agriculture is one of the main drivers of biodiversity loss, through the use of heavy machinery, pesticides and synthetic nitrogen fertilisers, land consolidation, drainage, etc. Therefore, ...

New technology and strategy for a large and sustainable deployment of second generation biofuel in rural areas (BABET-REAL5)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2020,
The business model currently under development for second generation ethanol is a replication of the model used for first generation which is plants with massive annual production capacities. Such high production rates require high capital investment and huge amounts of biomasses (250-350,000 tons per year) concentrated in small radius catchment areas to afford transportation costs (50 km). Under ...

Sustainable adaptation of typical EU farming systems to climate change (LIFE AGRI ADAPT)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
Background
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicted in its 2014 report that climate change would have negative impacts on agriculture for the rest of this century, even in temperate zones such as in Europe. Integration of adaptation measures into the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and Cohesion Policy can increase the resilience of ...

Quantification of ecological services for sustainable agriculture (QUESSA)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
"The project aims to identify the key semi-natural habitats (SNH), outside and within crops, providing essential ecological services (ES). Vegetation traits will be linked to potential ES provision, case studies will measure actual ES levels and inform models which will show unused opportunities and trade-offs among ES by SNH from habitat to landscape scale. This will be achieved for a range of re ...

Combating climate change through farming: application of a common evaluation system in the 4 largest agricultural economies of the EU (AgriClimateChange)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
Background
Mitigating the negative impacts of climate change is one of the most important challenges in the EU over the coming decades. In that sense, agriculture will play a key role, as farming emissions represent around 11% of the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the EU28. Promoting farming systems that combat climate change is a powerful strate ...

Indicators for biodiversity in organic and low-input farming systems (BioBio)
Date du début: 1 mars 2009, Date de fin: 31 août 2012,
Organic and low-input farming systems have been shown to benefit farmland biodiversity although a generic indicator system to assess these benefits at the European level is lacking. The BIOBIO project will therefore pursue the following objectives: 1. Conceptualization of criteria for a scientifically-based selection of biodiversity indicators for organic/low-input farming systems; 2. Assessment ...
