Description
Summary:The report describes the main technical findings and results of the Good Agricultural and Environmental Condition (GAEC) workshop 2012 organised by the Joint Research Centre (JRC). The workshop was held at the JRC in Ispra from 8th-10th October 2012. 110 delegates attended the workshop representing 24 European Union Member States, two candidate countries (Croatia and Iceland) and Commission services. The workshop focussed on implementation and control issues related to the identification and measure of landscape features and buffer strips, as well as on scientific references for definition and mapping of soil related issues (e. g. soil erosion or soil organic matter). Participants also showed much interest on technical aspects related to the implementation of the future CAP with particular reference to landscape features in the framework of the so-called Ecological Focus Area. The workshop allows setting up and fine-tuning future main JRC activities taking into account DG AGRI and Member States inputs. JRC.H.4 - Monitoring Agricultural Resources
