Centre for High Carbon Capture Cropping (CH Cx3)

该项目将建立一个*高碳捕获种植中心**(**CH CX3**)。不同的团队将在选定的四个作物类别(已知与高碳捕获潜力相关)上共同工作。该小组将确保通过一个负责传播和推广的中央知识中心向农民和政府提供项目成果和产出。CHCx3将评估和开发通过提高这些作物捕获和存储二氧化碳的能力来增加英国农业中碳(C)捕获的潜力。除了从空气中捕获大气中的二氧化碳并将其存储在土壤中外，我们还将考虑如何将这些作物本身用于生产：由这些作物制成的新产品。这些材料包括代用品砖/风砖、布料和刨花板。能源作物替代天然气/石油。简而言之，在可能的情况下，更换不可再生的、碳密集型的生产材料。使作物品种多样化(例如，可持续建筑材料中的大麻和亚麻)和用于畜牧生产系统的作物多样化(例如，多种草和花的混合物)有可能提高农场的复原力，减少作物投入，并有助于改善环境。应对气候变化目标要求使用和销售作物产品(称为价值链)的农民和行业对经济上可行的作物生产有信心。加强和试点价值链的组成部分是该项目的一个主要组成部分。我们将帮助农民提供政府激励计划，如‘环境土地管理’计划(ELM)，该计划通过支付使农民能够实现更广泛的公共利益的目标。CHCx3将企业、种植者、行业专家和其他利益相关者聚集在一起；通过讨论、严格测试和生命周期分析，评估经济回报，并通过在农场和通过产品使用来验证预期的气候变化缓解和减排。农民和其他利益相关者将能够通过两个用户友好的基于网页的‘应用’访问该项目的数据，其中一个已经在最近资助的SISTER项目中开发。联网、知识交流种植者/用户互动以及与政策制定者的互动是？**CHCx3**中心的核心；持续的活动和增长通过应用程序的开发和招募得到保证；得到全国农民联盟、农场、NIAB以及英国、北爱尔兰和苏格兰大麻协会等国家成员团体的协助。育种工作也将在完成后继续。考虑的主要温室气体(GHG)排放是二氧化碳，但第二个关键温室气体将通过减少使用氮基化肥来减少；即一氧化二氮排放；这也将被量化。

This project will establish a?**Centre for High Carbon Capture Cropping**?(**CH Cx3**). The diverse team will work together on a selected set of four crop groups (already known to be associated with high carbon-capture potential). The team will ensure Project outcomes and outputs will be made available to farmers and government via a central knowledge hub dealing with dissemination and outreach. CHCx3 will evaluate and develop the potential for increased carbon (C) capture within UK agriculture by improving these crops' ability to capture and store Carbon-dioxide.In addition to capturing atmospheric Carbon-dioxide from the air and storing it in the soil, we will consider how the crops themselves can be used in production of: new products made from those crops. These include substitutes bricks/breeze blocks, fabrics and chip-board. Energy-crops substitute for gas/oil. In short, replacing non-renewable, carbon-intensive production materials where possible.Diversifying crop species (e.g., hemp and flax in sustainable building materials) and crops to feed livestock production systems (e.g., diverse grass and flower mixtures) has the potential to increase farm resilience, reduce crop inputs and help improve the environment.Addressing climate change goals requires that farmers and industry using and selling crop products (known as value-chains) have confidence in economically viable crop production. strengthening and piloting components of value-chains is a major component of the project. We will help farmers to deliver government incentive schemes, such as the 'Environmental Land Management' scheme (ELM) which, through payments, enables farmers to hit targets for broader public good.?CHCx3 brings together businesses, growers, industry-experts and other stakeholders; evaluates economic returns and validates anticipated climate-change mitigation and emissions reductions on-farm and through product-use by discussion, rigorous testing and life cycle analysis. Farmers and other stakeholders will be able to access data from the project through two user friendly Webpage-based 'Apps', one of which is already being developed in a recently funded sister project.Networking, knowledge exchange grower/user interaction and engagement with policy-makers are at the heart of the?**CHCx3** hub; continued activity and growth is guaranteed through App development and recruitment of farmers; assisted by national membership groups such as the National Farmers Union, FarmED, NIAB and the British, Northern-Irish and Scottish Hemp Associations. Breeding work will continue too following completionThe main 'Green House Gas (GHG) emission considered is carbon-dioxide, but a second key GHG will be reduced through reduced use of nitrogen-based fertilisers; namely nitrous-oxide emissions; this will also be quantified.
