Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Sectoral Emissions Ceilings: Discussion
Ms Edwina Love:
That goes to the point of the whole issue around carbon farming and the need to be able to monitor, report and verify what is happening on farms. We need to have the data in respect of the baselines and work is ongoing in that regard. Generally in terms of the actions sets out in the climate action plan on agriculture we have set out a series of actions that will focus initially on nitrous oxide in the first carbon budget period. The success of the actions there will determine future actions that roll out from there.
