Agroforestry & the EU Fit for 55 Package.

The fit for 55 package contains several draft regulations relevant to agroforestry, principally the Forest Strategy 2030,  the amended LULUCF Regulation. EURAF has five recommendations: a) Member States should use the 10 component agroforestry typology in their CAP strategic plans and LULUCF inventories, b) Member States need to improve the consistency of their reporting of Trees outside Forests in submissions to the FAO, c) monitoring and  rules for “tree-landscape-features” need to be clarified by Member States; d) Member States are urged to implement the agroforestry Eco Scheme listed by the Commission. e) all member states are urged to include agroforestry in Pillar II of their CAP Strategic Plans.
