Afterres2050: A Horizon for Agriculture and Food, Focus on the Roles of Biomass
Short Introductive summary
The Afterres2050 scenario, developed by Solagro, underscores biomass’s vital role in the ecological transition by addressing food production, material creation, energy generation, and soil fertility. With limited global biomass resources and environmental constraints, achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 necessitates a shift from fossil fuels to carbon-free energy, doubling current biomass consumption. The Afterres2050 scenario promotes dietary changes, agroecological practices, reduced livestock, and minimized synthetic inputs. It also calls for reducing import-export flows and increasing bioenergy production through sustainable land use. By integrating strategic choices and optimizing biomass recovery, Afterres2050 aims to achieve carbon neutrality, showcasing a sustainable path for agriculture and ecosystem preservation in France.
