FairCarboN at the SAMS Annual Days

During a round‑table bringing together several PEPR programmes working on topics that overlap—at least in part—with those of PEPR SAMS, Hervé Guyomard presented the FairCarboN programme.

Unsurprisingly, the strongest connections between FairCarboN and SAMS have emerged around the theme of healthy and sustainable food systems, particularly those aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
