Clean Growth through Sustainable Intensification. MACC Fiches

The Delivering Clean Growth through Sustainable Intensification project (CGSI) was commissioned by Defra to better understand the appropriate mitigation methods that could be applied to English farming to meet climate and productivity targets in the future. The project aimed to identify the most reliable and high potential greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation approaches with the highest technical potential.  The fiches are the result of Work Package 1. These were further used in the project to refine these approaches through the lens of social and economic acceptance and farm level testing in order to ensure uptake of the most feasible technologies and the basis of defining feasible trajectories for English farming up to 2050 (with lessons for other UK farming communities) under 3 mitigation scenarios.   The outputs of the CGSI project now underpin Defra’s decarbonisation plans for agriculture (and agroforestry) and have been critical in developing a rigorous, evidence-based pathway. This has informed the development of the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) standards, Net Zero Strategy and Carbon Budget Delivery Plan.

由英国环境、食品和农村事务部（Defra）委托进行的“通过可持续强化实现清洁增长”（CGSI）项目，旨在深入理解适用于英国农业的未来气候和生产力目标的适宜减缓方法。该项目旨在识别最可靠且技术潜力最高的温室气体（GHG）减缓途径。这些文件是第一研究包的成果，并在项目中进一步应用，通过社会和经济接受度以及农场层面的测试来细化这些方法，以确保最可行技术的采用，并为英格兰农业至2050年的可行路径奠定基础（并为其他英国农业社区提供借鉴），在三种减缓情景下进行。CGSI项目的成果现在为英国环境、食品和农村事务部的农业（及农林）脱碳计划提供了支撑，并在制定严谨、基于证据的路径方面发挥了关键作用。这些成果已指导可持续农业激励计划（SFI）标准、净零战略和碳预算执行计划的制定。
