Our approach

06.02.2019 Page 3 agri benchmark and GRA

(1) Agricultural is extremely fragmented – GHG mitigation strategies that require intense and close monitoring will fail. (2) Therefore strategies have to create a win-win. (3) Productivity growth is the multiple win-win: Less GHG per unit, higher income, more food, less pressure for LUC. (4) Globally, more productive systems are established. No rocket science is needed. (5) What you need: in-depth understanding of current systems and

  • bstacles for improvements and how to overcome them.

Main conclusions

06.02.2019 Page 15 agri benchmark and GRA

 The case studies provide sound evidence that SPS simultaneously deliver gains in productivity and profitability, environmental improvements, and animal welfare benefits and thereby support a number of SDGs  The same quantity of product can be produced on less land which can be released to native vegetation / carbon sinks. To avoid undesired rebound-effects, good governance, policies and incentives are required  Public-private alliances, driven by strong farmer’s organizations, have proven crucial in overcoming technical barriers  National policies should support SPS adoption with specialized training for extension workers and technicians, dedicated credit lines and payment for environmental services and other incentives

Approach of agri benchmark

06.02.2019 Page 16 agri benchmark and GRA

  • Production systems approach

>>> more than financial data; reasons behind differences of economic results

  • Partnership approach through networking

>>> access local expertise and overcome language issues

  • Cooperation with producers and advisors

>>> get the story behind the data

  • Global coverage

>>> big players and emerging economies

  • Using standardised methods world-wide

>>> global comparability

  • Works in countries without / with limited statistics and accounting

>>> generate data that nobody else has
