Greenhouse gas mitigation for organic and conventional dairy production (MIDAIR)

Objective

As part of the post-Kyoto process, GHG mitigation options within agriculture must be explored. MIDAIR aims to identify region and system specific, cost-effective GHG mitigation measures and strategies for organic and conventional dairy production in Europe. First MIDAIR provides a description of GHG emissions from dairy production within five regions; both modelling and targeted measurements to fill gaps of knowledge are performed to describe GHG emissions at this level of resolution. Secondly, the developed models are extended to identify cost-effective mitigation measures and strategies, assisted by data from studies of various specific management options. The GHG mitigation potential for all dairy regions in Europe is quantified by up-scaling. Agronomic, environmental and socio-economic consequences of complete and partial adoption are assessed and recommendations are given to farmers, scientists and policy makers.
