Swedish University and Farming data platform conduct a pilot study for measurement of farm impact on nature and biodiversity, citing IPBES highlights of the interlinked nature and climate challenges
Swedish
The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and Agronod - a farm data sharing platform - have developed a new tool in a pilot study making it possible to calculate and report biodiversity as well as climate impacts for a given farm and/or a specific production branch. The purpose of this tool is based on the linkage between climate and biodiversity challenges according to IPBES reports: the study proposes to support agricultural actors to be able to measure their impact on biodiversity and nature.
The feasibility study includes, among other things:
- A review of 16 different international methods for measuring the value of biodiversity.
- Factors that affect biodiversity in arable landscapes in Sweden. Characteristics of the landscape and management methods that affect the nature around and on the farm.
- Factors and measures that affect the value of biodiversity on individual farms.
- Practical example of how a calculation can be done.
