This project aims to encourage the progressive establishment of sustainable agricultural techniques (CA and PA), contributing to GHG emission decreases and the adaptation of the agricultural system to the new climate conditionants found in global. Agriculture faces many challenges. It has to produce more food, feed and other raw materials to satisfy the increasing demands of a growing population. Agriculture must also contribute to economic prosperity and social well-being,.

Environmental benefits

http://www.ecaf.org/ca-in-europe/environmental-benefits

The implementation of Conservation Agriculture techniques entails the achievement of many benefits for the environment. Some of them are:. Improvement of soil properties. Soils improve considerably when CA techniques are put into practice because, not disturbing soils, favour the proliferation of organisms and microorganisms that:. Promotes infiltration due to the galleries formed when they move within the soil (worms) and,. Keeping soils covered and protected diminish erosion because:. Increase of the CO.

Economic benefits

Labour and fuel savings in perennial crops. Cost-savings in annual crops. Crop yields in eroded soils are lower than those in protected soils because erosion reduces soil fertility and water availability. For example, in some locations crop yield on severely eroded soils were 9% to 34% lower than those on slightly eroded soil. Water resources also decrease due to erosion. Reduction of off-site problems. ECAF European Conservation Agriculture Federation.

What is conservation agriculture?

http://www.ecaf.org/ca-in-europe/what-is-ca

What is conservation agriculture? Conservation Agriculture (CA) is defined as a sustainable agriculture production system comprising a set of farming practices adapted to the requirements of crops and local conditions of each region, whose farming and soil management techniques protect the soil from erosion and degradation, improve its quality and biodiversity, and contribute to the preservation of the natural resources, water and air, while optimizing yields. Maintenance of permanent soil covers.
