Synopsis (short abstract) This module presents a case study of a Carbon-Balance Appraisal for an investment project. It is useful for people who wish to improve their skills on how to estimate climate change mitigation potentials of agricultural programmes/projects and how to integrate it in the economic analysis of projects. It is part of a set of documents aimed at providing support to project developers in the process of learning and applying the EX-Ante Carbon balance Tool (EX-ACT). Specifically, this case study has been developed as a result of the application of EX-ACT to a FAO/WB Project in Brazil, which was also selected to test the software. The case study consists of a brief description of the project, the EX-ACT analysis of the project and ends with a discussion of the results.
