In theory, agriculture has a wide range of options for reducing greenhouse gases. In practice, however, the effectiveness of the measures has hardly been tested. Similarly, there is a lack of empirical data on the feasibility of such measures. Finally, the reduction of greenhouse gases should not take place at the expense of animal welfare, biodiversity or economic efficiency.

This is where the AgroCO₂ncept project comes in: Farmers and entrepreneurs from the Flaachtal region have taken the initiative to demonstrate the feasibility of practical climate protection in everyday agricultural life and in the region. They want to reduce greenhouse gas emissions on their farms, store CO₂ and use their experience to contribute to climate protection throughout Switzerland.
