註釋The EU has the goal of reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in order to contribute to global climate change mitigation. In 2014, the EU decided to reduce its emission by 40% in 2030 compared to 1990. Agriculture is among the sectors under the non-Emissions Trading System (NETS), with an EU-wide goal of 30% reduction compared to 2005. The 30% reduction NETS goal is to be distributed unequally among Member States (MS) according to the Effort Sharing Regulation (ESR). The MS then have to decide how and in which NETS sectors their distributed domestic emission reduction goal should be achieved, and to which degree agriculture and agricultural sub-sectors should be involved. At JRC the project 'Economic Assessment of GHG mitigation policy options for EU agriculture (EcAMPA)' is designed to assess some aspects of a potential inclusion of the agricultural sector into the EU 2030 climate policy framework. In the context of possible reductions of non-CO2 emissions from EU agriculture, EcAMPA estimates production effects of various policy scenarios using the modelling framework of CAPRI. The EcAMPA project examines the adoption of different mitigation options in agriculture under different policy scenarios and their effects. Successful modelling of mitigation options requires information on various parameters including the adoption behaviour of farmers. So far, EcAMPA has modelled various mitigation options for reducing non-CO2 emissions, but also plans to include options that reduce CO2 emissions. Cover crops are one option that could be included in EcAMPA in the future.
