[QUOTE="Brid @ ADAS, post: 7337244, member: 148882"] The agriculture industry has committed to reaching Net-Zero carbon emissions by 2040. This will require substantial reductions in the greenhouse gas intensities of crop products, as well as increased storage of carbon in the farm system. Yield Enhancement Network (YEN) entries since 2013 have shown a wide variation in crop GHG costs on-farm, highlighting the importance of emissions related to N fertiliser. Interestingly, it also showed that high yielding crops often have the lowest GHG intensities. The purpose of YEN Zero will be to understand the issues to reaching Net Zero, agree on common metrics, and share ideas. By also benchmarking crop GHG intensities to enable fair and easy comparison of emissions, we can find ‘what works’. From there, we will be able to see what emission mitigation methods work best and explore these methods further to see if the benefits can be replicated for others. If you're interested in taking part, head to [URL='https://www.yen.adas.co.uk/index.php/projects/yen-zero']https://www.yen.adas.co.uk/projects/yen-zero [/URL]and register your name and email address so we can keep you informed as the network takes shape.
