D1.4.3

• Regional: Sustainable water and nitrogen management, Nitrate directive in the Midi-Pyrenees region in France

• European: Trade Liberalisation applied in Europe

Baseline of SEAMLESS-IF (hard coded, common for both/all applications)

D1.4.3

• Implementation of nitrate directive varies by regions:– Results for simulations in Midi-Pyrénées, similar analyses done

for other regions for which detailed data are available: Auvergne (FR), Zachodniopomorskie (PL), Sikasso and Koutiala (Mali)

• Nitrate directive in Midi-Pyrénées:– Improved management of nitrogen fertilization (alternative tech.)– Cross-compliance: 3% cut in premiums if technologies not usedOnly these two policy elements are implemented in FSSIM

– Limit to nitrogen in animal effluents to 170 kg/ha/year– Restriction of period for nitrogen application– Restricting fertilization near surface waters– Minimum quantity of vegetation in rainy periodsOther policy elements can be implemented in FSSIM

Specifications of baseline

Applications

• Describes situation in 2013 starting from 2003 data• Changes in general economic environment derived from

projections of others (inflation; population growth; trends in supply, demand and prices for EU (DG-Agri) and rest of world (FAPRI, FAO))

• Trade: Uruguay, ACP and EBA, plus updates of regional agreements like NAFTA

• Domestic policy: CAP reform 2003 accounting for national differences in decoupling

• Can adjust standard baseline through running experiment and using this as reference point
