Austria has to meet several obligations in the context of climate strategies and in accordance with EU regulations and international treaties. Apart from an annual report on air pollution inventories, forecasts on greenhouse gas emissions have to be provided. These forecasts provide a basis for the evaluation of past measures and potential needs for future measures to meet emission targets. The development of the Austrian agricultural sector for the period 2005 to 2020 and its production and environmental impacts are the core focus of this analysis.
