Including Harvested Grain Biogenic CO2 to Address a Critical Flaw in Climate Accounting
ABSTRACT The international climate accounting system excludes both the biogenic CO2 sequestered in harvested crops and the biogenic CO2 emissions that occur when grain is digested or burned as biofuel. Despite being described in the literature as a critical flaw in climate accounting all parties within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate

The Price Gap in Agriculture‐Based Greenhouse Gas Offset Markets
ABSTRACT Today, there is a global effort to reduce greenhouse gas net emissions (GHGNE). For economic well‐being, it is important to identify low‐cost means of net emission offsets. Agriculture and forestry have received considerable attention as a means of supplying emissions offsets, as they contribute nearly 20% of global emissions.

US Consumer Appetite for Climate Claims on Beef Products: Does Country‐of‐Origin Matter?
ABSTRACT Beef cattle producers have been receiving pressure to reduce methane emissions from production. Beef products with varying climate claims have recently been introduced to the retail sector, stemming from various countries‐of‐origin. Using data from a US consumer survey, we find a subset of US consumers is willing to pay a premium for Lower ...

ABSTRACT The integrated crop‐livestock system (ICLS) involves rural households simultaneously engaging in crop cultivation and livestock rearing, embodying the principles of a circular bioeconomy. In this system, crop cultivation produces straw as livestock feed, while livestock rearing generates manure that enriches the soil for crop production.
