However, considering the finiteness of land and biomass, such a transition requires strategizing resource and land allocation towards activities that yield maximum environmental benefit. This paper aims to develop a resource-based comparative indicator between economic sectors to enable optimal use of biobased resources. A new methodology is proposed to analyze the climate effectiveness of using straw in the agricultural, energy and construction sectors. For this purpose, avoided and delayed emissions are analyzed for different use cases of straw and then compared. Considering only avoided emissions, the use of straw as a feedstock for bioelectricity has the highest climate effectiveness (930 kg CO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> eq.\/t<jats:sub>straw<\/jats:sub>). Considering only temporal carbon storage, straw-based insulation in buildings has the highest climate effectiveness (881 kg CO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> eq.\/t<jats:sub>straw<\/jats:sub>). Combining avoided and delayed emissions, the use of straw-based insulation has the highest climate effectiveness (1344 kg CO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> eq.\/t<jats:sub>straw<\/jats:sub>). Today EU-Policies incentives the use of straw in the agricultural sector and the energy sector, neglecting the benefit from its use in the construction sector. The results can support policymakers\u2019 trans-sectoral incentives, where agriculture by-products are diverted towards the use of biomass that most boost economic activities and trigger maximum environmental benefit, given the local circumstances.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1088\/1748-9326\/ad0517","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,19]],"date-time":"2023-10-19T22:35:09Z","timestamp":1697754909000},"page":"124004","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1088\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Climate-effective use of straw in the EU bioeconomy\u2014comparing avoided and delayed emissions in the agricultural, energy and construction sectors"],"prefix":"10.1088","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3322-3318","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Catherine","family":"Phan-huy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9206-7450","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Verena","family":"G\u00f6swein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3533-7896","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Guillaume","family":"Habert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"266","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"erlad0517bib1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.landusepol.2020.104898","article-title":"Nexus between nature-based solutions, ecosystem services and urban challenges","volume":"100","author":"Bab\u00ed Almenar","year":"2021","journal-title":"Land Use Policy"},{"key":"erlad0517bib2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"227","DOI":"10.1177\/1097196304039831","article-title":"Thermal transport in straw insulation","volume":"27","author":"Beck","year":"2004","journal-title":"J.
