Modelling soil carbon storage in grasslands through the LEAP guidelines and the GLEAM model

The Livestock Environmental and Assessment Partnership (LEAP) has worked closely with FAO and INRAE (France’s new National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food & Environment) in recent months to incorporate an additional component in the Global Livestock Environmental Assessment Model (GLEAM), a modelling framework to estimate livestock and environment interactions such as GHG emissions (used by the the FAO and GDP to generate the Report Climate Change and the Global Dairy Cattle Sector), nitrogen use, water, soil carbon, and biodiversity.
