  1. Sustainable Land Management and Climate Change Details of Pillar 2 Public consultation meetings February-March 2007

  2. Pillar 2 in detail • Two key elements of Pillar 2: • Reducing emissions (agriculture and deforestation) • Enhancing forest sinks • Agriculture: • Limited solutions, but some solutions around nitrous oxide (strong water quality co-benefits), • Also research, technology transfer, voluntary reporting • Deforestation: • Difficult, but urgent (strong co-benefits in some areas) • Afforestation: • Some good solutions available, building on PFSI (strong co-benefits for sustainable land management)

  3. Overview of possible Pillar 2 options for agriculture (page 43) 10. Charge where deforested land is used for agriculture Impose a charge on agriculture emissions created when land is converted from forestry to agriculture 9. RMA standards to control new agricultural land use after deforestation Controlling the greenhouse gas emissions and other effects arising from land use change from forestry to agriculture LONG-TERM OPTIONS OPTIONS FOR ENCOURAGING EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS NOW Research, technology transfer and voluntary reporting Price-based measures Regulation Government pricing mechanisms Market-based mechanisms 4. Incentive for nitrification inhibitors Pay a financial incentive to encourage the use of nitrogen inhibitors 1. Research Research into adaptation, mitigation and measurement technologies and practices for methane and nitrous oxide 6. Tradable permit regime for agriculture emissions Devolution of agriculture greenhouse gas emission obligations and permits to farmers 8. RMA standards to control agricultural greenhouse gas emissions Development of a National Environmental Standard to control agricultural greenhouse gas emissions: i.e. input and/or output controls 2. Technology transfer Use of demonstration farms to promote adoption of mitigation technologies e.g. nitrogen inhibitors, nutrient budgeting, improved forage crops 5. Charge on nitrogen fertiliser Impose a charge on nitrogen fertilisers 7. Offset schemes for agricultural emissions Farmers required to offset emissions by emission reductions elsewhere i.e. tree planting, biofuels etc Options focusing on land use change from forestry to agriculture 3. Voluntary reporting Voluntary reporting of emissions at the farm level
