Funding climate-friendly soil management: Risks and key issues. (2023). [Umweltbundesamt]. https://doi.org/10.60810/openumwelt-2795
Zusammenfassung englisch
This report summarises key aspects that should be accounted for in the design of policy instruments to support the implementation of climate-friendly soil management measures. It outlines overarching aspects that need to be considered for any type of policy instruments. Furthermore, aspects that are relevant for all types of results-based funding schemes are elaborated upon. Particular risks exist for transfer-based mechanisms which are a subset of result-based payment approaches. These challenges must be considered and addressed for policy instruments to deliver robust mitigation through soil carbon.In einzelnen Factsheets sind die Herausforderungen der Zertifizierung von Klimaschutzerfolgen klimafreundlicher Bodennutzung auch auf Deutsch beschrieben und in einer Infografik auf Deutsch visualisiert.

Analysis of ten selected crediting methodologies for climate-friendly soil management
(German Environment Agency, 2025)
This report is an Annex to the report „Funding climate-friendly soil management: Appropriate policy instruments and limits of market-based approaches“ which constitutes the final report of the research project “Nature-based solutions for climate protection: market-based instruments to support climate-friendly soil management” (FKZ 3721 42 502 0). It presents the detailed assessment of ten crediting methodologies on climate-friendly soil management measures which the final report builds upon. The rules and methodologies of ten selected crediting methodologies are assessed against a set of guiding questions/indicators. A synthesis of the analysis is included in the final report of the project.
Funding climate-friendly soil management
(German Environment Agency, 2025)
This report assesses how results-based and action-based funding approaches should be used to promote climate-friendly soil management in Europe to deliver climate mitigation and support the agriculture sector’s transition to a net-zero future. It identifies considerable potential but also significant challenges of promoting climate-friendly soil management measures with these funding approaches. Additionally, ten existing carbon crediting mechanisms related to climate-friendly soil management are analyzed. The report concludes with recommendations on how funding approaches to promote different types of climate-friendly soil management measures should be used.
