Development of a livestock model for agropastoral biodiversity

Obiettivi
Objectives

The objective of the project is to identify a methodology to measure biodiversity able to be adapted to the different farming conditions present in our territory. Particular attention is dedicated to the assessment of the externalities of biodiversity related to the ecosystem services. This methodology will be converted into a web tool to provide the opportunity to other farms to assess their biodiversity in a simple and rapid way. The subject of intervention is the measurement of biodiversity in pilot farms and the realization of a dedicated web tool.

Activities

Next to the coordination and animation activities, the project plan of the Operational Group foresees the study and identification of a methodology to measure biodiversity, the application of this methodology in pilot farms, the development of a web tool, the assessment of the indicators by means of the analysis of the results, the dissemination of the results and the coaching of all livestock farms participating at the Operational Group.

Description

The objective of the project is to identify a methodology to measure biodiversity able to be adapted to the different farming conditions present in our territory. Particular attention is dedicated to the assessment of the externalities of biodiversity related to the ecosystem services. This methodology will be converted into a web tool to provide the opportunity to other farms to assess their biodiversity in a simple and rapid way.
Expected results and descrition of activity:
• Identification of a methodology for the measurement of the overall biodiversity of farms.
• Assessment of the externalities of biodiversity related to the production of ecosystems services.
• Safeguarding of biodiversity.
• Valorisation of pastoral systems in general.
• Optimisation of management.
• Promotion of local products.
• Defense of the territory.
• Calculation of the farm biodiversity following the adopted technology.
• Realisation of a web tool.
• Safeguarding the ecological, social and economic environment sustainability.
• Consolidation and improvement of the image of farming with respect to civil society and the public opinion and in particular for consumers and institutional control bodies.
• Differentiation of the farm product with respect to other competitive products (competitive advantage).
