Summary

AgZero+ is a UKRI-funded collaborative research programme focused on developing evidence-based routes to net-zero agriculture in the United Kingdom. The programme brings together multiple research institutions to assess the feasibility, trade-offs, and enabling conditions for decarbonising UK farming systems. As a programme-level output rather than a discrete empirical study, this record likely represents an overview, framework document, or interim reporting document describing the programme's scope, objectives, and methodology.

UK applicability

This programme is directly and exclusively applicable to UK conditions, having been funded by UKRI and designed to inform UK agricultural and climate policy. Its outputs are particularly relevant to post-Brexit agricultural transition, including the Environmental Land Management schemes in England and equivalent devolved policy frameworks.

Key measures

Greenhouse gas emissions; carbon sequestration potential; farm productivity indicators; net-zero pathways

Outcomes reported

The AgZero+ programme aimed to identify and evaluate pathways for UK agriculture to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions whilst maintaining productivity and sustainability. It examined trade-offs and co-benefits across a range of farming systems and land uses.
