Ireland – New Zealand Joint Research Mechanism

Government of Ireland | SourceProjects |

 

The Ireland – New Zealand Joint Research Mechanism (JRI) is a three-year pilot initiative (2022–2024) led by Ireland’s Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM) and New Zealand’s Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) to enhance research collaboration and address shared challenges in the agrifood sector. It focuses on climate-smart agriculture, particularly reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from pasture-based livestock systems to support the transition of these systems to climate neutrality. The 2024 Joint Call for Research Proposals prioritizes emissions inventory refinement, mitigation technologies, and agri-digitalisation. €5.2 million has been awarded to three projects targeting methane emissions, urine patch emissions, and the development of emission factors.
