Saturday, May 28, 2016 Climate Smart Agriculture Case study: Producing tomatoes in the Netherlands

Dutch horticulture: key figures Economic significance of the Horticulture complex: ca companies Added value: Horticulture:€ 7 billion Export Value: € 75 billon (19%) Export driven The Netherlands (2013) Biggest exporter of taomatoes Worth: € 1.8 billion 2nd: Mexico, 3rd: Spain Saturday, May 28, 2016

Tomatoes Area of origin South / Middle America Mayas and Incas Plants need: Warmth Light Fertilizer Sweet water The Netherlands lack a warm climate Greenhouses Energy intensity Saturday, May 28, 2016

Growing Tomatoes in the Netherlands Main trade off Production vs mitigation Benefits: Degressive energy tax policies Highly skilled labour Export facilities Weakthy markets close by Fossil based production: Up to 40% of the production costs Mainly warmth Extra growing light Light pollution Saturday, May 28, 2016

Mitigation: CO2 reduction Horticulture uses 4% of the total energy in the NL Energy intensive sector Reduction in energy tax But: Sectoral CO2-emisson cap Decreasing year by year Saving energy Renewable heath Geothermics 2014: 8/8 projects in the NL by horticulture Saturday, May 28, 2016

Organization Vision driven Policy and sectoral shared vision (PPS) 2050: 0 CO2-emission Science based innovations Sectoral Innovation programm Research & Development Demonstration & introduction programm Saturday, May 28, 2016

Discussion This is a Dutch best practice General lessons? More difficulties with dairy production: Non CO2 GHG Incentive? Animal welfare and landscape (LULUCF) World wide demand and production Level playing field? Saturday, May 28, 2016

Thank you for your attention

Key factors Policies have their internal logic On farm level, they can raise conflicts Suboptimized policy, problem on farm scale Determine possible: Win-win situations possible Direct interaction between policy makers and farmers Identify the disallignment together Solutions: Either policy based or research based In the NL: new policy instrument: Green Deals Saturday, May 28, 2016
