1 LEAP Partnership: Introduction, Achievements, and Action plan Greg Thoma
2 Livestock Environmental Assessment and Performance Partnership The LEAP Partnership is a multi-stakeholder initiative committed to improving the environmental performance of livestock supply chains, while considering both economic and social viability of the sector. Steering Committee: equal say Secretariat hosted at FAO Participation is open and voluntary: members recognize the objective and principles of LEAP
3 LEAP Partnership in a nutshell International, Multi-stakeholder, Partnership on: Committed to improving livestock supply chains Environmental sustainability considering both economic and social viability of the sector. Multi-criteria approach Life-cycle thinking and life cycle assessment (LCA) LEAP products : Science-based consensus environmental assessment and reporting guidelines Reference Data By Wndyfrg - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0,
4 Livestock Production Matters Food security Global Assets Long market chain ECO 9 billion people Environmental impact Demand for livestock products
5 Specificities of the sector require dedicated attention Environmental issues GHG emissions, acidification, eutrophication, biodiversity, etc Natural processes are difficult to control and measure (e.g. accounting of nutrient flows) Diverse farming systems Long supply chains with many actors multiple products and functions
6 Activities LEAP develops comprehensive guidance and methodology for understanding the environmental performance of livestock supply chains to shape evidence-based policy measures and business strategies. What gets measured, gets managed - Peter Drucker
7 LEAP Achievements LEAP Partnership program , has been developing consensus environmental assessment tools: 6 Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs) 300 experts from all world regions 6 Technical Guidance documents 1 Global database for 5 main feed crops
8 Small Ruminants Feed Crops Database Poultry Feed Methodological notes Biodiversity Large ruminants
9 2016 Public Review Pig supply Reply to comments by Cowspiracy
10 LEAP work programme , known as LEAP+, is supporting the consolidation of LEAP1 guidelines through road testing, additional technical guidance documents, and review.
11 Ongoing Activities To evaluate the applicability of LEAP guidelines To get feedback on the clarity of recommendations LEAP+ Road Testing To identify gaps in recommendations and barriers preventing application and endorsement
12 LEAP+ Broadening Scope Broadening the scope of LEAP and taking a major step towards sustainability by contributing to the development of guidelines on integrated sustainability assessments Nutrient cycling Water Footprinting Soil Carbon Changes Feed Additives Biodiversity Ecotoxicity
13 Nutrient Cycles Accounting TAG Origin of New N and P N Biological N fixation by legumes P P Ore mining Haber-Bosch reaction High energy P mine in Togo Release of accumulated soil P
14 Nutrient Cycles Accounting TAG To propose methods and metrics to assess nutrient use performance along regional and global livestock supply chains To identify hotspots as entry point for improvement options To estimation of the global share of livestock in total nutrient losses
15 Water Footprinting TAG Water is an essential production input for feed and livestock supply chains Increasingly scarce resource Availability varies widely over temporal and spatial scales Climate change Increased competition with other users
16 Water Footprinting TAG - Finding a balance
17 Water Footprinting TAG To evaluate the credibility of water footprint methods and methods when these are applied in livestock supply chains To propose methods and metrics to assess water footprinting assessments appropriate for both regional and global livestock supply chains To identify hotspots as entry point for improvement options
18 Soil Carbon Stock Changes TAG Grassland covers almost 40% terrestrial land High potential to store Carbon Mitigate climate change - Carbon credits Soil carbon storage is influenced by several factors Soil type - Climate - Agriculture mgmt. practices
