Strategic concept paper for bioeconomy in Poland: executive summary.

The main objective of the proposed approach is to accelerate the transition of the bioeconomy towards a knowledge-based sustainable system, covering key biobased sectors strongly linked to agriculture in Poland, in line with the European Green Deal. The proposed model of a bioeconomy development strategy, with a special focus on agriculture, is based on two pillars: (1) strengthening traditional, relevant (in terms of economic indicators) sectors of the economy and improving their 'sustainability' by implementing the proposed transformation pathways; and (2) developing economic activities or 'niche or novel sectors' that are prospective accelerators of change in the face of climate challenge, and ensuring their upscaling. This approach forms the basis for policy planning at national and regional level in these European Union (EU) countries, where bioeconomy development strategies have been initiated through dialogue between science, administration and industry stakeholders.

Simulation of sorghum introduction and its impacts on land use change-A case study on Lubelski region of Eastern Poland.

Echoing the bioenergy development initiative in Poland, high expectations are pinned on sweet sorghum usage for biogas plants. In contrast to its high profile in the industry, the research on the introduction and production of sorghum in Poland is lagging behind. To solve this issue, in this paper we have developed a spatial-agent dynamic model of the agricultural land use and applied the model to eastern Poland.

Efficiency under different methods for incorporating undesirable outputs in an LCA+DEA framework: A case study of winter wheat production in Poland.

Incorporating undesirable outputs in the operational assessments through the integration of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has received great attention recently. There are many studies throughout literature that apply various methods to integrate LCA and DEA. In this case study, the six most common approaches were employed to assess the winter wheat cropping system in Poland.
