The Potential of an Enhanced Cooperation Measure in the EAFRD (2014-2020): the case of Ireland
The need for diverse forms of cooperation involving primary food suppliers; scientific, extension and industry agents; and multiple firms is emphasised in Ireland’s FOOD HARVEST 2020 strategy. While cooperation is an explicit objective of the strategy in addressing issues such as scale, fragmentation, coordination and pooling of skills and competencies, cooperation is also instrumental in expediting and enhancing the achievement of the strategy’s broader goals in relation to innovation, productivity and efficiency.

A Marginal Abatement Cost Curve for Irish Agriculture
Teagasc is pleased to avail of the opportunity to make a submission to the public consultation on National Climate Policy Development. This consultation has provided a platform and opportunity to collate the outcomes of Teagasc’s research and knowledge transfer programmes on Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, into a Marginal Abatement Cost Curve (MACC) for Irish agriculture. This MACC quantifies the current opportunities for abatement of agricultural greenhouse gases, as well as the associated costs/benefits, and may be of use for guidance in the development of policies aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the non-ETS sectors.
