Carbon sequestration in soils is often mentioned in the discussions about climate changes. In this paper the opportunities for carbon sequestration in Dutch agriculture are discussed at farm and national level. Farm internal carbon sources are already completely used in livestock farming. The effect under arable conditions is limited in time and very limited compared to national CO2 emmission. External sources are scarce. Energy production out of crop residues and manure via biogas installations is possible but th eoverall impact is again very limited.
