The case of CAP’2ER®

The French Livestock Institute (Institut de l'Elevage - Idele), in collaboration with its partners, has developed the CAP'2ER®, a tool to reduce the carbon footprint of dairy and beef production.  CAP'2ER® is a multi-criteria calculator to measure greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with a farm and to identify options for mitigation, in accordance with the FAO LEAP guidelines (which also incorporates the IDF GHG methodology) on feed and ruminants supply chains, as certified by an independent body.  Learn more about CAP’2ER (French language website)
