Abstract: A disaggregated Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) Model of the Irish economy is used to analyse the effects of agricultural policy change on greenhouse gas emissions from the Irish agricultural and forestry sectors. The simulations find that the adoption of the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) MidTerm Review proposals would enable Ireland to meet its greenhouse gas emission target for the agricultural sector.
