BAB 070/24: Transparency of agricultural value chains
The crises of the recent past (war in Ukraine, SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, inflation rates) have once again highlighted the need for information and data on material flows within the value chains of agricultural products and foodstuffs. Comprehensive material flow representations at the level of agricultural products from primary production through the various processing stages to use are hardly available at the Austrian level. In this regard, a pilot study was carried out in 2022/23 as part of the...
BAB 069/24: Open Source Data Pipeline & Database for HyDaMS (Hydrographisches Daten Management System)
As part of the co-operation between the federal and provincial governments required by the Water Act, a monitoring network is operated to determine the water balance in Austria. This data is collected by the federal states and transferred to the Hydrographic Data Management System (HyDaMS). The HyDaMS has so far been based on proprietary software, with which over 300,000 time series with different parameters and time references are stored in a very specialised format. As part of the INSPIRE...
BAB 068/24: Social Economy for Resilience, Inclusion and Good Life in Rural Areas (SERIGO)
Social vulnerability very easily leads to isolation and disempowerment. Both individuals and certain groups of people within a society are affected. The threat of social exclusion is particularly high in times of economic restructuring, natural disasters but also - as recently - during pandemics. Vulnerability can be a consequence of social exclusion, but can also cause social exclusion itself. In rural areas, this vulnerability often manifests itself in specific ways. An interdisciplinary...
BAB 066/23: Empowering Rural Communities to Act for Change - RURACTIVE (Horizon Europe Projekt)
Around one third of EU citizens (two thirds in Austria) live in rural regions, but GDP per capita there is below average. The inequalities between urban and rural communities in demographic, economic and social terms are the subject of scientific projects and political programs. It is necessary to enable rural areas to compensate for disadvantages and to make greater use of potential with innovative solutions (green and digital transformation). The Horizon Europe project RURACTIVE aims to...
BAB 065/23: Pure nutrient demand and pure nutrient usage in Austrian agriculture
Agrarmarkt Austria publishes quarterly sales figures for the pure nutrients nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P2O5) and potash (K2O). LBG Österreich GmbH collects data on the annual application rates of pure nutrients from mineral fertilisers from farms that voluntarily keep accounts for the Green Report. As part of a short study conducted by the Federal Institute for Agricultural Economics in 2016, the pure nutrient requirements of Austrian agriculture were determined at NUTS II level on the basis...
BAB 064/23: A European Forum for Revitalisation of Marginalised Mountain Areas (COST Action) - MARGISTAR
The COST project MARGISTAR was approved in May 2022 (COST Action CA21125) and the networking of partners started with the Management Committee Meeting in November 2022. The COST Action is being carried out in 26 European participating countries with the aim of supporting networking between research institutions and practice partners who intend to overcome the marginalization of mountain areas. As a COST activity, only networking activities are funded, not the research work itself. Innovative...
BAB 067/23: Circular Bioeconomy Market Uptake and Policy Support in Central Europe (BIOECO-UP)
The project "BIOECO-UP - Circular bioeconomy market uptake and policy support in Central Europe" (CE0100254) is supported by the Interreg Central Europe 2021-2027 programme with co-financing from the European Regional Development Fund. The circular economy in Central Europe is characterised by underdeveloped bio-based value chains, low consumer awareness and uneven progress in bioeconomy policy. BIO-ECO-UP is concerned with the further development of the circular bioeconomy in Central...
BAB 063/22: Communicating roots: co-learning to improve rural resilience and governance - CoROOTS (ERASMUS+ Projekt)
Co-learning methods to improve resilience management in rural areas The project was applied for on the initiative of the Prout Research Institute in Portugal in order to enable a scientific exchange of co-learning approaches developed in research projects in recent years, to disseminate them further in regional development, to implement them in practice and also to develop them further. The BAB contributes its results from the H2020 projects SIMRA, ROBUST and Liverur on the topics of social...
BAB 062/22: Rural Sustainability Transitions through Integration of Knowledge for improved policy processes - RUSTIK
Horizon Europe Projekt The project has been tendered in the Horizon Europe Programme under the thematic area of promoting "resilient rural communities" under the title "Grasping rural diversity and strengthening evidence for tailored policies enhancing the contribution of rural communities to ecological, digital and social transitions (RIA)" (CL6-2021-COMMUNITIES-01-01). In view of insufficient impacts and the increasing challenges posed by social and ecological developments, this call for...
BAB 061/22: Relief for agricultural und forestry sector within the framework of national emissions certificate trading
Within the framework of the eco-social tax reform of 2022, a gradual introduction of a national emission allowance trading system (nEHS) is planned, starting with an introductory phase from 1 July 2022. In connection with the introduction of the nEHS, a relief mechanism will be created to offset the additional costs from the CO2 price for agriculture and forestry. This is to ensure that domestic food production is not disadvantaged in relation to European and international competition....
BAB 060/22: Converting Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) into Farm Sustainability Data Network (FSDN)
The Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) has been collecting economic data from agricultural holdings at European level for decades. Due to the increased focus of EU agricultural policy on sustainability, the FADN is to be expanded into a Farm Sustainability Data Network (FSDN). The European Commission is therefore proposing an amendment to the basic regulation governing the FADN. This should also enable the collection of data to support and monitor the objectives of the Green Deal, the Farm...
BAB 059/22: Regional agricultural value chains
Robust Food Supply Chains in Austria The reliable supply of high-quality food to the Austrian population has become the focus of public debate in recent years, not least due to the large number of crises. As part of the cooperation project "Robust value and supply chains for agricultural goods and food in Austria" (ROBVEK), aspects of quantitative supply as well as the affordability of goods along the value chain were examined in a total of 6 work packages. The Federal Institute of...
