Carbon farming is a concept that is growing in significance for the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). In Poland, CAP funds have been used to strengthen a critical mass of expertise in the carbon farming field contributing to the goals for the European Green Deal and Farm to Fork Strategy.
Technical assistance funds from the Polish Rural Development Programme resulted in a good practice approach to raising awareness about low carbon emission solutions in agriculture. This was achieved by bringing together public authorities, research institutes and farmers to consider opportunities for mitigating emissions from livestock production and other farming models.
