EURAF Advocates for Policy Coherence in EU Carbon Farming Methodologies
The European Agroforestry Federation (EURAF) is calling for policy coherence to enhance agroforestry's role in carbon farming, as EU draft methodologies are released. EURAF emphasizes alignment with existing CAP and LULUCF definitions and the importance of clear definitions for agroforestry to reduce administrative burdens. The federation also highlights the need to recognize early adopters of sustainable practices. EURAF is involved in the Carbon Farming Med project, which aims to develop an IT platform to support a Mediterranean carbon credit market.

The European Agroforestry Federation (EURAF) is urging for policy coherence in light of the EU's draft Carbon Removals and Carbon Farming (CRCF) methodologies. EURAF supports the draft's recognition of agroforestry's benefits but calls for alignment with existing CAP and LULUCF definitions.
Clear definitions are necessary to minimize administrative burdens and promote adoption among farmers. EURAF emphasizes the need to recognize early adopters of agroforestry practices. Through the Carbon Farming Med project, EURAF is developing an IT platform to facilitate a Mediterranean carbon credit market, enabling farmers to manage data and estimate carbon credits.
