Work on the evaluation of ÖPUL measures with regard to their climate impact
Description
Farming practices influence soil organic carbon storage, humus formation and nitrous oxide emissions. These can make an important contribution to climate protection. In cooperation with the Austrian Agency for Health and Food Security (AGES), the Federal Environment Agency reviews selected ÖPUL measures for their climate protection impact and derives management factors for estimating changes in soil carbon stocks. The results of the humus and nitrogen balance at regional and national level show that the ÖPUL measures provide a significant contribution to climate protection. In addition to greening, the use of organic fertilizers has a significant influence on humus propagation.
