This report assesses how results-based and action-based funding approaches should be used to promote climate-friendly soil management in Europe to deliver climate mitigation and support the agriculture sector’s transition to a net-zero future. It identifies considerable potential but also significant challenges of promoting climate-friendly soil management measures with these funding approaches. Additionally, ten existing carbon crediting mechanisms related to climate-friendly soil management are analyzed. The report concludes with recommendations on how funding approaches to promote different types of climate-friendly soil management measures should be used.
