The subproject analyses the farm-level costs and impacts of adopting environmentally friendly land use practices. This is a prerequisite to identify strategies that safeguard farm profits while improving the carbon content of agriculturally used landscapes. Moreover, this SP identifies farm-level barriers that restrain the adoption of soil-improving technologies by exploring the subjective perceptions of the actual decision-makers on the farm level. Such understanding is prerequisite to formulate operational strategies and policies that foster the sustainable adoption of cost-efficient and GHG-saving agricultural production techniques in the Kulunda steppe region.
