Understanding Farmer Behaviour for Successful Climate Change Mitigation in Voluntary Initiatives
ABSTRACT Private and voluntary initiatives, such as voluntary carbon markets, can support public policies aimed at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in agriculture. This study investigates the impact of behavioural factors (reluctance to change) and social dynamics (peer imitation) on the adoption of two mitigation practices on Swiss dairy and ...
