1 Regionalisation of Nitrogen Balances with CAPRI Pilot Project (RegNiBal) Kick-off meeting 20/02/ (A) Introduction Adrian Leip Franz Weiss Serving society Stimulating innovation Supporting legislation

2 What is CAPRI? Common Agricultural Policy Regionalized Impact A multi-purpose modeling system for EU s agriculture, which allows to analyze the effects of: Agricultural policies (international/eu/member state/nuts2) Environmental policies Changes in exogenous drivers (population/inflation etc.) on endogenous variables: Supply/demand/trade flows Hectares/herd size/yields/input use Producer & consumer prices, income indicators Environmental indicators Conventional welfare effects

3 Operational since 1999 Step-wise expanded over time: First version for EU15 with a focus on regional modeling of EU agriculture ( ) Second phase (CAP-STRAT): expansion to EU27, large-scale global trade model ( ), farm types Third phase (CAPRI-DYNASPAT): spatial down-scaling, energy indicators, new Graphical User Interface ( ) Fourth phase (CAPRI-RD): focus on Rural Development (started 2009) CAPRI is open source Available via SVN-Server (Tortoise)

7 Crop-specific regional distribution of mineral fertiliser applications CAPRI Example: Distribution of Mineral fertilizer to regions and crops Minimum deviation of average national inorganic crop specific application rates for N,P,K from EFMA questionnaire data Total inorganic N at national level must be exhausted by the regional and crop specific application rates times given regional crop areas Regional crop N-requirements (based on yields, N-contents and areas) < Regional N-supply (mineral fertiliser, manure availability, N-fixation, atmospheric deposition) and NH3 losses

8 Production activities 40 crop activities 18 animal activities Balance positions Prices EAA positions Outputs 36 primary crop products 17 primary animal products Yields Production and use Output prices Production value 31 secondary products Inputs Input coefficients Input balances Input prices Total input costs Profitability measures Gross margin Sector income Activity level Number of hectares/animals

21 to regionalise the N-surplus indicator under MoU with ESTAT CAPRI calculates current N- surplus at country and regional level for year (t-2) Output: detailled table with all data and parameters Country-experts have opportunity to check and comment data and indicator CAPRI N-surplus ok CAPRI is updated and recalculates N- surplus yes no yes Output: list of proposed changes in data and parameters; scientific evidence Country provide own estimate no Implementation in CAPRI feasible Suggestions valid? Advisory board checks comments on scientific and statistical

22 Data needs for comparison of N balances Reference area Mineral fertilizer use Average animal stock number (ref year +/- 1) N-excretion rates (per animal type per year) Feed ration (per animal type per year) Slaughtered animals (live weight) / year Milk and eggs production / year Other organic fertilisers (not in CAPRI) Crop areas (by crop type) Crop yield ( ) Crop N-content ( ) Crop fixation rate ( ) Atmospheric deposition Crop residues removed as used for calculation of national GNB Highest spatial resolution available At least for CAPRI base year (2004)

23 Example Problem: N-excretion rates for pigs and cattle in Denmark in CAPRI is over-estimated Cause: N in feed too much Feed market balance wrong (from eurostat/fao commodity balance) N contents in feed wrong Non-agricultural use of feed ignored by CAPRI N in products too little Total N retention in animal products wrong (N-content) Non-registered animal production

24 Milestone Date Comment Kick-off meeting at JRC End February 20/02/2013 First exchange of data End March Exact format/content of data will be discussed at the kick-off meeting Report on differences between CAPRI and national data Discussion on prioritisation of issues Bilateral discussions on problems/meetings End May Beginning of June June-November Phone-conference?
