Overview

Precision climate resilience for agriculture and forestry sectors in the European boreal regions
Climate change affects Boreal regions and their communities severely as these areas are warming three times faster than the global average. Primary producers, such as farmers and forest owners (actors), face a significant challenge when it comes to adapting to these changing conditions. They need tested, proven solutions to help them adapt and so become a resilient primary production sector. We need to bridge the gap between science, which has the knowledge and solutions, and targeted practical implementation with local actors who will use them. Precilience therefore applies an inclusive and collaborative approach to test and demonstrate various solutions for increasing climate resilience in the EU Boreal region. The most effective measures are tailored to their location. We will collaborate regionally, including with authorities, to find the most relevant risks and suitable nature-based solutions. Together, we will co-create the most impactful adaptation portfolios for changing conditions in the agriculture and forestry sectors of 11 focal regions in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Norway and Sweden. 4 replicating regions will also benefit from the lessons learned and demonstrated solutions (DK,FI,NO,SE). We demonstrate hands-on solutions with local actors under 8 themed demonstrations: a) Co-create adaptation strategies; b) Diversify agricultural production; c) Sustainable water management and recycling; d) Soil function enhancement by closer-to-nature management and improvers; f) Assess vulnerable forest types; g) Innovative forest regeneration in drought-prone sites; h) Closer-to-nature forest management; i) Use climate-considerate tree material to replant forests. We work with local stakeholders to further develop certain demonstrations. This involves targeted collaborations based on stakeholder mapping and categorisation. We involve all levels of stakeholders from small fast reacting units for localised fast impact to large organisations with long-term impact.
