Assessment of Organic Soil Contributions in Latvian Agriculture – Multifactored Impact Evaluation in Proposing Effective Land Use Solutions

Project description

With the objective of the transition to a low carbon economy, some countries and regions in Europe are developing energy and land use policies in separate ways by different administrations. To improve the energy sector in balance with the natural resource a challenge is to work on bridging those conflicting views and policies.  BIO4ECO aims to improve regional and national policy processes and policy implementation and delivery addressing the transition to a low carbon economy, in relation with renewable energy use, energy efficiency of building, and forest and agricultural biomass.

The main expected outcomes are:

1. increase the share of renewable energy in the overall energy mix
2. take into account bioenergy and bioeconomy in all planning and decision-making
3. lay the groundwork for future integrated strategies and programmes for regional bioeconomy and carbon neutrality.
