Research <\/span>objectives<\/span><\/h2>\n

The overall objective of KARBONMAT is to develop sustainable business model (SBM) concepts for carbon sequestering soils in Norwegian agriculture that enable farmers to adopt healthy soil management practices, and companies to invest in these to contribute to local sustainable food systems, new practices in primary production, improve biodiversity and reduce their climate footprint.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Secondary objectives include to:\u200b<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    1. identify and revise existing carbon sequestering soil management practices (SMPs) relevant for the Norwegian context and document their <\/span>relevance for the Norwegian context by a practical field trial (WP1)<\/span>\u200b<\/li>\n
    2. measure environmental sustainability effects of carbon sequestering soil management practices in Norwegian agriculture (WP1)<\/span>\u200b<\/li>\n
    3. explore legal and policy frameworks that may facilitate or inhibit the application of SBM concepts for carbon sequestering soils in Norwegian <\/span>agriculture (WP2)<\/span>\u200b<\/li>\n
    4. review existing business models for valorising carbon in soils and analyse how these might be applied in a Norwegian context (WP3)<\/span>\u200b<\/li>\n
    5. investigate the interest towards existing business models for valorising carbon among Norwegian farmers and co-design optimal BMs from <\/span>the farmers\u2019 perspective (WP4)<\/span>\u200b<\/li>\n
    6. explore the interest of Norwegian companies in investing in carbon sequestering soil management practices (WP5)<\/span>\u200b<\/li>\n
    7. develop and recommend measures for the implementation of SBM concepts for carbon rich soils in Norwegian agriculture with relevant <\/span>stakeholders (WP6) <\/span>\u200b<\/li>\n
    8. integrate responsible research and innovation principles and practices in the project (WP7)<\/span>\n
