Gelderland’s Climate Plan sets a 2030 reduction target of 1.3 to 2.2 Mton CO₂-eq for agriculture and land use. That target shows the scale of the task: the agricultural transition must reduce emissions, improve soil quality, reorganise manure and nutrient flows, and create space for nature and carbon sequestration.
The source shows that this target cannot be delivered by one measure alone. Regenerative agriculture, a smaller livestock herd, nutrient management, reduced food waste, a more plant-rich diet and landscape-based sequestration need to be treated as a connected package. This makes the agricultural task a place-based transition, not only a technical reduction calculation.
