Project Details
Description
The European project AnimalChange provides tools that can be used to predict effects of livestock systems on emissions of greenhouse gases in coherence with other environmental variables and (socio)economical drivers. Scenario studies are carried out at the animal level, the farm level and the landscape level for management options defined within AnimalChange. In these scenario studies, the effect on both environment and economy is determined. The results are useful for governments, industry and the agricultural sector (farmers). In this way the project contributes to a competitive and sustainable livestock production. The project started in 2011 and continues till 2015. Results of workshops, literature study and modelling are published at www.animalchange.eu.
