| Acronym | CropGas (Reference Number: 142) |
| Duration | 01/06/2022 - 31/05/2025 |
| Project Topic | Agriculture must ensure food security for all, sustainably and in the face of climate change. There is concern about the impact of farming on soil quality (losses of structural stability, soil organic carbon, biological functions, and greenhouse gas (GHG emissions. The most recent IPCC report (Working Group 3 identified agriculture and land use change as a comparable source of anthropogenic GHG to the energy sector, with considerable scope for mitigation. |
