Significance and value of non-traded ecosystem services on farmland
Background. Ecosystem services (ES) generated within agricultural landscapes, including field boundaries, are vital for the sustainable supply of food and fibre. However, the value of ES in agriculture has not been quantified experimentally and then extrapolated globally. Methods. We quantified the economic value of two key but contrasting ES (biological control of pests and nitrogen mineralisa...

متن کاملRegionalizing land use impacts on farmland birds
The environmental impacts of land use vary regionally. Differences in geomorphology, climate, landscape structure, and biotope inventories are regarded as the main causes of this variation. We present a methodological approach for identifying regional responses in land use type to large-scale changes and the implications for the provision of habitat for farmland birds. The methodological innova...
متن کاملResource provision for farmland gamebirds: the value of beetle banks
Severe declines have occurred in the populations of wild game birds in Britain. This has been attributed to agricultural intensification, leading to the loss of invertebrates vital within chick diets, fewer feeding resources for adults, and inadequate provision of nesting and brood-rearing habitat. This paper explores the potential value of simple sown grass strips beetle banks in providing...
متن کاملUse of Remote Sensing for the Assessment of Farmland Biodiversity
Executive Summary In many countries farmland represent the most relevant type of land use. The conservation and the enhancement of biodiversity within these areas is primary objective for the achievement of sustainable management of agro‐ecosystems and the level of biodiversity can be used as agri‐ environmental indicator. The measure of biodiversity over larger territories however, can be very...
