Agricultural practices indirectly influence plant productivity and ecosystem services through effects on soil biota.
It is well established that agricultural practices alter the composition and diversity of soil microbial communities. However, the impact of changing soil microbial communities on the functioning of the agroecosystems is still poorly understood. Earlier work showed that soil tillage drastically altered microbial community composition. Here we tested, using an experimental grassland (Lolium, Tri...
متن کاملMultifactor Productivity in Health Care
The following overview introduces a series of articles that focuses on multifactor productivity (MFP) growth in health care. This edition of the Health Care Financing Review begins with a theoretical discussion of the Medicare Economic Index (MEI) and the conceptual reasons for the MFP adjustment incorporated into the Medicare physician fee schedule (MPFS). The issue then moves on to an explora...
متن کاملSupporting Agricultural Ecosystem Services through the Integration of Perennial Polycultures into Crop Rotations
This review analyzes the potential role and long-term effects of field perennial polycultures (mixtures) in agricultural systems, with the aim of reducing the trade-offs between provisioning and regulating ecosystem services. First, crop rotations are identified as a suitable tool for the assessment of the long-term effects of perennial polycultures on ecosystem services, which are not visible ...
