4. Recalls that agriculture and forestry play an important role in addressing climate change adaptation and mitigation; emphasises that EU agriculture has reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during the last 30 years and reminds that the emissions from EU agriculture are among the lowest worldwide per produced unit; emphasises the importance of recognising the both positive and negative impact of agriculture on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and land use; stresses the need to enhance natural carbon sinks and reduce agricultural emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide in all sectors; calls for harmonised calculation methods for methane and then a regulatory framework that incentivises progressive reductions in all GHG emissions in these sectors through the introduction of a carbon market place or crediting schemes which incentivises to deliver on climate objectives; reiterates that especially the methane reduction calculation should consider innovative feed additives and nutrition management plans, as well as innovative husbandry practices; supports the stimulating uptake of regenerative agriculture practices, improving access to technologies, data, training and information, and diversifying farmers’ income through carbon sequestration and payments for ecosystem services, thereby increasing their resilience;

Amendment
4. Emphasises the importance of recognising the significant impact of agriculture and especially animal production on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and land use; stresses the imperative of reducing these emissions, in order to contribute to the European Union’s commitment to the objectives of the Paris Agreement; stresses the need to enhance natural carbon sinks and reduce agricultural emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, in particular in the feed and livestock sectors; calls for regulatory measures and legally-binding EU-level and national targets for emissions from agriculture and related land use as part of the “Fit for 55” package to ensure ambitious reductions in all GHG emissions in these sectors in the EU and also to address embedded land use emissions from imported feed and food; points out that the EU is increasingly outsourcing the environmental footprint of its food systems, as the EU imports millions of tons of soya-based animal feed every year, including from South American countries where deforestation (responsible for 20% of global CO2 emissions), is incentivised by EU agricultural policy direction;

4. Emphasises the importance of recognising the impact of agriculture and especially animal production on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and land use, taking into consideration both positive and negative externalities, as well as the emission reduction efforts already made, the difficulty in achieving further significant emission reductions because they are by nature difficult to limit, but also the importance of recognising the central role played by agriculture and silviculture in absorbing CO2 in soils and plants; stresses the need to enhance carbon absorption and reduce agricultural emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide; calls for the definition of policies and measures to encourage and support improved climatic performance of agricultural and livestock production through reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and increased CO2 absorption, in line with the principle of ensuring access for all population groups in Europe to healthy, safe and sufficient food;

Amendment
4. Emphasises that agriculture is essential for the survival of humanity and that it should be recognised that agriculture profoundly changes the land as the global population increases; stresses that some intensive agricultural practices, designed to support a globalised agri-food model, can have a significant impact on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and land use; stresses the need to enhance natural carbon sinks and reduce agricultural emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, in particular in the feed and livestock sectors;
