Abstract:
The project’s aim is the development of an indicator system called the Indicator System Sustainable Agriculture (INSA), featuring a set of 34 indicators. The system will be used to represent the level of sustainability of the agricultural region of North-East Lower Saxony, thereby showing where the possibilities for improvement for individual farms lie. It will also render the degree of sustainability of the agricultural sector representable and comparable not only at farm level but also aggregated at regional level. The farmers’ association “BauernverbandNordostniedersachsene.V. (BVNON)“ acts as a practical project partner and provides the link to practice and thus the transdisciplinarity of the project.
