This document is a guide for practitioners to support the design of initiatives for the provision of agri-environmental-climate public goods (AECPGs) on a voluntary basis by agriculture and forestry. Hereby, it , focuses on voluntary contracts to farmers and forest owners, which intend to implement contracts with four specific contract characteristics: environmental prescriptions included in land tenure contracts, result-based payments, provision of AECPGs in form of collective arrangements between land managers, and value chain contracts involving the value chain as actor supporting AECPG provision.

FACTSHEET NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY Key information Functionalized nanocellulose membranes can take up nitrate and phosphate. These membranes can be put in a water treatment unit. As the membranes are biobased, degradable materials, they can after use be added to the soil, thus returning the leached nutrients back for their original purpose providing fertilizers (nutrient recycling).
This case study is drafting new legislation that allows renting forestland for multiple purposes in order to increase economic efficiency and maintain a balance between all ecosystem services. This Russian case works on regulation mechanisms so that people renting forestland can use it for multiple purposes, and to include ecosystem services in the Forest Code.
It summarises the reports from all Cross Visits. During the Cross Visits the AgriSpin team gradually learned how to capture what really matters in the cases that were visited. It is important that the characteristics in the overview are helpful for: ● deepening the understanding of the individual cases and the effect of particular innovation support actions; ● making comparisons between cases, even though they represent different sectors and cover different types of innovation.
