Paludiculture: EU Experience and Prospects for Implementation in Ukraine provides scientific information on paludiculture, a method of agricultural production on rewetted organic soils. The concept was developed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from peatlands and, at the same time, further use of these areas after rewetting for profit. The introduction of paludiculture means a significant paradigm shift in prioritizing the climate agenda, which is extremely difficult due to the current political, social and economic situation in Ukraine.
With the support of the Global Environment Facility and the Food Systems, Land Use and Restoration (FOLUR) platform, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) shares expertise and assists in implementing globally recognized environmentally focused practices, adapting them to Ukraine's unique context
