### (10) in order to enhance greenhouse gas removals , individual farmers or forest managers need a direct incentive to store more carbon on their land and their forests. new business models based on carbon farming incentives and on the certification of carbon removals need to be increasingly deployed in the period until 2030. such incentives and business models will enhance climate mitigation in the bio-economy , including through the use of durable harvested wood products , in full respect of ecological principles fostering biodiversity and the circular economy. hence , new categories of carbon storage products should be introduced in addition to the harvested wood products. the emerging business models , farming and land management practices to enhance removals contribute to a balanced territorial development and economic growth in rural areas. they also create opportunities for new jobs and provide incentives for relevant training , reskilling and upskilling. ### (10) in order to enhance greenhouse gas removals and overall emission reduction across sectors , individual farmers or forest managers and owners need a direct incentive to store more carbon on their land , their forests and carbon facility. new business models based on carbon farming incentives and on the certification of carbon removals need to be increasingly deployed in the period until 2030. such incentives and business models will enhance climate mitigation in the bio-economy , including through the use of durable harvested wood products , in full respect of ecological principles fostering biodiversity and the circular economy. renewable bio-based raw material and biofuels contribute significantly to the circular bioeconomy and also allow for decarbonisation in other sectors , specifically those raw bio materials are the only available green alternative. hence , new categories of carbon storage products should be introduced in addition to the harvested wood products. the emerging business models , farming and land management practices to enhance removals contribute to a balanced territorial development and economic growth in rural areas. they also create opportunities for new jobs and provide incentives for relevant training , reskilling and upskilling.

### (13) with the setting of binding national annual targets for greenhouse gas removals based on the reported greenhouse gas emissions and removals from 2026 onwards , the rules for target compliance should be set out. the principles laid down in regulation (eu) 2018/842 should apply mutatis mutandis , with a penalty for non-compliance calculated in the following way: 108% of the gap between the assigned target and the net removals reported in the given year will be added to the greenhouse gas emission figure reported in the subsequent year by the member state. ### (13) with the setting of annual targets at union level for greenhouse gas removals based on the reported greenhouse gas emissions and removals from 2026 onwards , the rules for target compliance should be set out. the principles laid down in regulation (eu) 2018/842 should apply.
