Innovative approaches to reduce THG emissions in agriculture
technological innovations in agriculture: a way to reduce greenhouse gases
agriculture faces enormous challenges, especially in the context of climate change. A new study by the Agrar e. V. (IVA) illuminates how modern technologies and targeted measures can help to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions (THG). It is particularly noteworthy that this is possible without endangering the income.
The investigation that under the direction of Professor Dr. Enno Bahrs was carried out by the University of Hohenheim, presents various approaches to reduce emissions in agriculture. In theory, these methods could enable emissions to be reduced by up to 40 percent. This not only means a positive impact on the climate, but could also bring long -term advantages for agriculture itself.
One of the central points that emphasizes the study is the need for political framework conditions that support these technological innovations. The introduction of fertilizers and digital systems that improve nutrient efficiency are conceivable measures. But the implementation of such ideas requires a rapid modernization of EU legislation.
It is important to emphasize that agriculture works in an open system that is characterized by complex biological processes. These factors make it particularly challenging to achieve climate goals. At the same time, the demand for agricultural products increases steadily, which makes the situation more complicated. However, it is crucial to master these challenges in order to protect both ecological and economic interests.
Another important aspect of the study is the economic evaluation of the proposed measures. Many approaches are already ready for the market and can be implemented comparatively inexpensively. However, reaching the climate goals in agriculture is only possible with high area efficiency and sustainable industry that produces equipment with minimal emissions.
In view of increasing energy prices, the study also shows that fertilizer production is increasingly shifted abroad. This leads to an increase in imports, which often have a poorer climate and environmental balance. This development could endanger the climate goals in agriculture.At the end of the day, there are ways of not only improve the climate balance, but can also help to secure the earnings of the companies. Michael Wagner, President of the IVA, calls on politics to create the necessary conditions so that these technologies can be used far. "With innovations we can achieve climate goals in agriculture without endangering basic care," he emphasizes.
This study is an important step towards a sustainable agriculture that stands in the challenges of climate change. It can be downloaded free of charge at bit.ly/Klimast study and offers valuable insights into the possibilities that offers technology in agriculture.
