An Adapted Indicator Framework for Evaluating the Potential Contribution of Bioeconomy Approaches to Agricultural Systems Resilience

“…However, the installation of APV systems on agricultural land can lead to a trade‐off between the expansion of renewable energy production on the one hand and both agricultural productivity and the preservation of agricultural production resources on the other. As 8.3% of the arable area is taken up by the APV installations, [ 133 ] the total amount of food produced will be reduced by the same amount. In temperate regions, 10–30% lower yields have been observed in APV systems.…”

“…[ 134,135 ] By contrast, potential yield stabilization in drought years has also been observed, and for crops that benefit from partial shading (e.g., berries) or protection (e.g., apple: hail protection), higher yields are to be expected. [ 133 ]…”

“…There is a high risk that the implementation of APV will lead to the loss of agricultural land, as ≈8% of the land is required for PV installation. [ 133 ] Another relevant risk is that, where APV requires high investments, farmers are not adequately involved. [ 133 ] In the face of the growing demand for food and renewable resources, the competing claims on land, water, plant nutrients, and biomass are considered a major bottleneck for the implementation of those BAs that have the delivery of non‐food products, such as electricity or biomass, as their main purpose.…”

[ 42 ] This also applies to the large‐scale implementation of miscanthus, which requires arable land.…”
