Basic Information

Network FACCE JPI
Website https://www.faccejpi.com/FACCE-Joint-activities/International-Call-on-Mitigation
Aim of the joint call "Research undertaken will contribute to: - Promote consistent methodological approaches for the measurement and estimation of GHG emissions and carbon sequestration to improve research coherence and the monitoring of mitigation efforts; - Develop the science and technology needed to improve the measurement and estimation of GHG emissions and carbon sequestration in different agricultural systems; - Propose, test and verify new practices, strategies and solutions to sustainably increase the C-sequestration potentials of agricultural soils while maintaining or even enhancing crop productivity, soil biodiversity and fertility; - Improve knowledge sharing, access to, and application by farmers of GHG mitigation and carbon sequestration measures, required for best management practices and technologies.
