Description

The aim of this project is to explore the feasibility of an AFM at the regional level, using the Montérégie region as a case study and focusing on the cereal material subcategory.

The overall objective of this work is to perform a material flow analysis on this biomass subcategory. The specific objectives are to :

  • identify the public data sources available to carry out a sub-national MFA based on the Eurostat method, for the cereals sub-category in the Montérégie region;
  • determine the values of the indicators derived from the AFM, using provincial
  • where regional data are lacking;
  • draw up a flow balance sheet for the sub-category analyzed.
