Title Evaluating competitiveness of clover-grass as a resilient feed production option in Finland Type Report
Year 2016 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 9 C6 - Issue Pages Sp9-4
Keywords (down)
Abstract Clover-grasses address the following objectives:– Decreased input use (N-fertilization), reduced dependency ofinorganic N => reduced GHG emissions– Possibility for increased protein content of silage, reduceddependency on purchased protein feed supplement (homegrown proteins, resilience)© Natural Resources Institute Finland– Better utilisation of farmland in the context of climate changein the north: Higher T – improved N fixation– Compatible with sustainable agriculture and sustainableintensification: more output with the same inputs / the sameoutput with reduced (non-renewable) inputs• In contrast: Shifting to silage maize increases N fertilisation– Major shift from grasslands to silage maize in e.g. Denmark 1. Small cost reductions in clover-grass cultivation, or clover-grasspremiums, may or may not increase clover cultivation- Their effectiveness is uncertain and subject to prices2. N tax is effective, but is not a suitable policy action in currentfinancial situation of farms (milk crisis 2015-2016)3. However, the results suggest that a 25% higher N price lead to© Natural Resources Institute Finlandsignificantly higher clover grass area and a small reduction ínmilk output – with no cost reductions or extra premiums!4. To increase clover cultivation, price ratios should be adjusted!5. If increasing clover -grass yield, a robust increase in clovergrass areas may realise, with small benefits for farm economyand overall production – How much more clover grass yieldcould be attained at low costs? A topic for further discussionand analysis

Title Assessing the impact of agro-climatic factors and farm characteristics on the yield variation of the Norwegian fruit sector Type Report
Year 2016 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 9 C6 - Issue Pages Sp9-5
Keywords (down)
Abstract Main drivers of ag. yields:–Technology–R&D (new hybrids etc.)–Weather–Etc.•Common sense and anecdotal observations (remember the Tromsø presentation) revealed extreme events tended to impact wide geographic areas•This was called the «systemic» nature of agriculture No semi-aggregation  farm-level•Not the boring corn, maize, wheat  fruits•No OLS-like Pearson correlation or functional form approach for conditioning spatial correlations on weather  SDM•Finally, if we are smart enough to set the explanatory proxies in a meaningful way presumably we can make the distinction between the effects of, say draught and extreme heat.•And much more in policy relevance

Title Adaptation to climate change in the European agriculture: A new tool for explicit cost accounting Type Report
Year 2016 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 9 C6 - Issue Pages Sp9-10
Keywords (down)
Abstract farm structure in Austria and level of educationchallenges of more volatile markets / more uncertain yieldsmore uncertainty about revenues and costsspecialisation and liquidity problems – not alleviated by EU direct paymentspolitical measures: late, uncertain, no legal title, wrong incentivestax credits – not relevant in Austria for most farmsprice hedging instruments steep learning curve and intransparent marketsmost frequently used: service of buying co-operatives control of accumulation risksdetails of contract are attractive for farmerse.g. monthly benefits for milk producersbenefits at the time of sale for pig, piglet, grain producerscombination with production risk insurance with discountsgovernment support during introduction period / as a new policy instrumentmarketing and sales: wholesale buyers / dairies / producer organisations offer margin insurance as a service
