Carbon sequestration in the soil in case of non-breaking grassland

What do you see? This map shows the potential carbon capture in the soil when the measure does not crack grassland. For this measure, it is assumed that temporary grassland is no longer ploughed and thus becomes permanent grassland, which can lead to a large increase in the carbon stock in the soil. The map shows that especially in North Brabant, an area with a lot of temporary grassland, the potential is high. What’s the value? This card, together with the maps for the other measures, provides insight into where in the Netherlands a certain measure would be effective for carbon capture in agricultural soils. Who is this important to? This map is important for policy makers and researchers involved in climate mitigation (carbon sequestration), but also for the agricultural sector where soil organic matter is an important indicator of soil quality.
