Work package 4: Economic and environmental impact

WP4 will evaluate the economic viability and environmental impact of agroforestry, with special attention to the different business models and impact categories (water, energy, emissions, etc.). Through a novel approach that allows to integrate the environmental and economic dimension we will evaluate on the one hand the lighthouse experiences and on the other hand the implementation of the different initiatives to make projections of profitability and environmental impact. The specific objectives are: 

  • SO1. Determine the economic profitability and environmental impact of the lighthouse experiences.
  • SO2. To analyse the start-up costs of new plantations, as well as their environmental impact.
  • SO3. To identify the critical and strong points of the business models. 
  • SO4. To make projections on economic and environmental results based on the two previous objectives.

Tasks

  • Task 4.1: Development of protocols and data gathering for economic and environmental analyses
  • Task 4.2: Business models and economic efficiency
  • Task 4.3: Water, Energy, Food and Emissions nexus analyses
  • Task 4.4: Modelling and scenarios
