Objective
The ENFA project will establish a dynamic agricultural and forest sector model for the integrated economic and environmental assessment of non-food alternatives in European agriculture and forestry. This tool will be used to analyze market and environmental impacts from the adoption of non-food strategies. Market impacts include supply potentials for agricultural non-food product lines under alternative policy and technology scenarios, supply, price, and trade effects for traditional agricultural and forestry products, and measures of rural community change such as changes in farm welfare, labor demand, and land values. Environmental impact estimates will include measures of emissions pertaining to greenhouse gases, soil erosion, and nutrient leaching as well as biodiversity impacts. To achieve its objectives, the ENFA project will integrate engineering science and micro economic analysis for major non-food production lines with traditional agricultural and forest sector analysis across Europe. The proposed analysis will be intensively linked to many completed and ongoing European research projects and will join leading research institutes in the non-food arena.
