It's also not only about carbon. 2/3s of land in Denmark are cultivated use for farming. Transforming (some of) this for trees decreases nitrogen use and oxygen depletion, strengthens biodiversity, etc.

But, the sector hasn't really reduced its emission since 2010. With status quo policies, agriculture would represent 40% of total emissions in 2030. Without new measures, Denmark wouldn't fulfil its binding climate law target to reach 70% in 2030.
