Agricultural management is a major factor driving the change of faunal richness in anthropogenic landscapes. Thus, there is
an urgent need to develop tools that allow decision-makers to understand better intended and unintended effects of agricultural
policy measures on biodiversity. Here we demonstrate the potential of such a tool by combining a socio-economic model with
the biodiversity model GEPARD to forecast the response of bird and carabid species richness to two scenarios of agricultural
subsidies: (1) subsidies based on production levels and prices and (2) direct income support that is independent of production
levels. We focussed on farmland of the Lahn-Dill area, Germany, as an example of European regions with low intensity farming.
GEPARD predicts faunal richness and is based on multi-scaled resource-selection functions. Under both scenarios the area of
predicted losses in species richness of birds and carabids was larger than the area of predicted gains in species richness.
However, the area with predicted losses of avian richness was smaller under the direct income support scenario than under
the production-based subsidy scenario, whereas the area with predicted losses of carabid species richness was smaller under
the production-based subsidy scenario than under the direct income support. Yet locally, richness gains of up to four species
were predicted for carabids under both scenarios. We conclude that the sometimes contrasting and heterogeneous responses of
birds and carabids at different localities suggest the need for spatially targeted subsidy schemes. With the help of the GIS-based
approach presented in this study, prediction maps on potential changes in local and regional species richness can be easily
generated. 相似文献

Many blueprints for urban development argue for the benefits of a sharp distinction between rural and urban space. While such planning designs have been quite successful in maintaining a physical distinction between rural and urban, major transformations of the socio-economic environment in peri-urban areas are creating a more diffuse and porous interface.This paper examines socio-economic consequences of the current transformation of peri-urban areas. Three themes are selected for analysis: changing economies, overall impact of urbanisation as perceived by the individual farm owner and the degree of their local orientation and engagement. Based on case studies in Greater Copenhagen, longitudinal trends and details of the current situation are analysed. In addition, by differentiating between newcomers and long-term residents, possible future changes are indicated. The analysis shows that the importance of agriculture has declined, whereas other gainful activities and residential use have increased. Thus, the functions of the local economy and community are changing. An increasing proportion of the farm owners appreciate the proximity to urban agglomerations (public services, shopping, public transport, social relationships and markets), but this location also has drawbacks, for example in terms of uncertainty concerning future urban development, inconveniences for agricultural production and problems related to public access to private properties.Differences between newcomers and long-time residents are identified. Newcomers without any agricultural background are frequent. They often work outside the municipality and are more frequently personally involved in other gainful activities on-farm. Newcomers perceive more problems related to people accessing the farm properties and are less involved in local activities. In combination, these trends indicate possible future increase in conflicts between farm owners and the public and that the local engagement may be declining. The analysis, however, also shows similarities between newcomers and long-time residents, and therefore does not indicate the development of two cultures or “two nations”. Rather, the urban fringe population is becoming more heterogeneous, ranging from full-time farmers to residents with their social and professional network outside the local area or people engaging in non-agricultural business on-farm. 相似文献

Urbanisation is an important driver of biodiversity loss, also contributing to habitat loss and fragmentation of grasslands at the urban-rural interface. While urban green spaces are known to include many grassland habitats, it is uncertain to what extent urban land use types harbour grasslands of special conservation interest and whether patch characteristics and connectivity of these differ from grasslands on agricultural land. By relating the city-wide biotope mapping to the land use mapping of Berlin, Germany, we assessed (1) to which specific urban land use types the major grassland biotope types belong, (2) differences in patch characteristics and connectivity, and (3) the conservation value of grassland patches at a typological level by means of their legal protection status. Grasslands cover 5% of Berlin's surface, and 43% of that area is assigned to legally protected grassland types. The majority of legally protected grassland (71%) lies on urban land opposed to 29% on agricultural land. Airports and historic parks, which only cover 2% of land in Berlin, contain one-third of all protected dry grasslands. Wet grassland is more confined to agricultural land. In airports and agricultural areas, grassland patches are larger but of a more complex shape than those in historic parks. In airports, grassland patches show greater connectivity as they are situated in grassland-dominated surroundings. Grassland in historic parks appears to be more vulnerable due to smaller patch sizes and higher fragmentation. The example of Berlin demonstrates that the urban green infrastructure can clearly contribute to grassland conservation and may thus partially compensate for the decline of traditional grasslands in cultural landscapes. It will be important to involve residents and landowners in urban grassland conservation and management because most grassland of special conservation interest (57%) was found outside of conservation areas. 相似文献

Agri-environmental schemes and the European agricultural landscapes: the role of indicators as valuing tools for evaluation 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
In Europe most conservation values, from biodiversity to scenic sites, are integral parts of agricultural landscapes. When these landscapes change as a result of agricultural policies, natural values – species, habitats, landscapes – are usually affected. Until recently however, these values have not been part of agricultural policies. The impacts of such new policies are difficult to evaluate because landscapes are complex and diverse, and the effects of policy are rarely immediate or causal.This paper evaluates the potential effects of Agri-environmental Regulation EC 2078/92 on European agricultural landscapes through the use of agri-environmental indicators (AEIs) on policy effects. After discussing the general framework of the evaluation methodology through the use of AEIs, we distinguish two types of agri-environmental policy (AEP) effects: policy performances and policy outcomes. The impediments to direct measurement of policy outcomes are stated. The potential for measuring policy performances are checked in two case study areas, one in Spain and one in Denmark, characterized by extensive agricultural land-uses and by the dual process of intensification/abandonment that is threatening their natural values. Both study areas are currently targeted by agri-environmental schemes under Reg. 2078/92. The realisability or availability of suitable statistical data to construct and report each AEI is stated for both types of effects. A problem of scale and content is found in most of the available statistics for assessing policy outcomes and the need for data at farm level is concluded to be indispensable if policy performances are to be measured. Effects of policy performance are measured for key selected AEIs in each study area on the basis of the results of a field survey based on questionnaires of participating and non-participating farmers in the AEP schemes. The main effects may be catalogued as improvement effects or protection effects since they represent a change in participant over non-participant farmers' decisions. Finally, the importance of this type of policy evaluation approach is discussed in the light of the likely future development of AEP in the European Union. 相似文献

This paper explores the emergence of urban agriculture and its changing nature and role in the urbanization process in China. With an increase in urban agricultural pursuits in both planned and unplanned residential areas, the focus of the paper is primarily on better understanding the nature of emerging ‘informal’ practices in built and unbuilt spaces. By using a planned residential area in Kunming, Yunnan Province as a case study, this paper identifies the physical and spatial expressions of urban agriculture practices as well as the motivations and attitudes of stakeholders. The results show that over half of the participants had experience in undertaking urban agricultural practices, with the predominant reason being to fulfill personal interests, including meeting household needs. When undertaking urban agricultural practices, local residents demonstrate their divergent abilities and skills in negotiating, adapting, and managing both private and increasingly incursions into the public domain. Analysis of the empirical results indicates that urban agricultural pursuits are a viable practice which supports the livelihoods and wellbeing of the residents by using innovative, creative and emergent forms in both private and public spaces. 相似文献

退耕还林工程是一项具有较强公共属性的生态建设工程,其项目收益更多考虑长远的生态、环境等社会收益,而非当期既得经济收益。作为退耕还林工程的行动主体农户与政府对于该项工程的利益诉求不同,使得政府主要用行政补贴的手段以实现生态保护的目的。根据农户与政府的博弈关系,补贴作为一种激励手段,在其数量与形式方面必须达到一定标准,并且具有因地制宜的适应性才能够使得补贴实现其功能。因此不应将退耕还林补贴制度统一化,建议改进现有的补贴方式,将补贴与监管惩罚机制相结合,建立“因地制宜”的退耕还林补贴制度。 相似文献

In this paper we test the hypothesis that landscape changes in a region of Northern Portugal (Minho) in the last 40 years could be predicted from socioeconomic and political history. The major predicted changes were related to agricultural abandonment and afforestation. We further predicted that these changes contributed to increased fire risk. Analysis of aerial photography for the years 1958, 1968, 1983 and 1995 in a study area of 3700 ha revealed a significant decline in agricultural areas and low shrublands and an increase in tall shrublands and forests. This represented a 20–40% increase in fuel accumulation at a landscape level, suggesting that the abandonment of farming activities is a major driving force of increasing fire occurrence in the region. With one exception, all the predictions were partly or totally confirmed. This study confirms that socioeconomic factors might explain a significant part of the variation in landscape composition across time, in the Mediterranean region. 相似文献

In a context of global agricultural intensification, integrating conservation and agricultural production is a major challenge.
We have tackled the problem using a transdisciplinary research framework. Our work focuses on part of the upper Lachlan River
catchment in southeastern Australia. The region is dominated by livestock grazing, and is part of an internationally recognised
threatened ecoregion because most native woodland vegetation has been cleared. In productive areas, most remnant vegetation
occurs as scattered and isolated paddock trees, which are dying from old age and not regenerating due to agricultural practices.
The policy context and industry trends present additional risks for sparse trees. These declining trees provide many ecosystem
services, including enhanced water infiltration, shade for livestock, aesthetic and cultural values, and habitat for native
species. Our research aims to identify management options and policy settings that enable landscape-scale tree regeneration
while maintaining grazing production. Our findings highlight tensions between the trajectory of tree cover in the region and
stakeholder values. Under status quo management, many scattered and isolated paddock trees will be lost from farms, although
most farmers would like to see them persist. Case studies on selected farms reveal management strategies that may be more
sustainable in terms of tree regeneration and agricultural productivity, such as rotational grazing. In addition to these
applied insights, our work provides a case study illustrating how a transdisciplinary study can be conducted efficiently by
a small team. Our pragmatic approach has successfully combined targeted disciplinary activities with strategic collaborations
and stakeholder engagement, all united by shared landscape, case graziers, and outreach activities. 相似文献

Landscape perception and recreation needs in urban green space in Fuyang,Hangzhou, China 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study analyzes the landscape characteristics and the residents’ recreational activities in the urban green spaces in Fuyang, Hangzhou, China. It explores the correlation of the desire to be in close proximity to urban green space to engage in recreational activities (the need for recreation) related to residents’ demographic and socio-economic factors: gender, education, monthly income and dwelling location. Residents’ preferences for landscape elements and attributes of urban green space are examined using principal components analysis. In addition, regression analysis identifies that coherence and vegetation are the most relevant factors correlated with perceived overall recreational appropriateness of the three most frequently visited urban parks. The purpose of the study is to attempt to quantify people's recreation needs in urban green space; identify the landscape components in urban green space which can encourage more outdoor visits and/or greater recreational activities; and provide proposals and strategies on planning, management and conservation for recreation-oriented urban green space which will enhance people's enjoyment and wellbeing by improving landscape esthetic quality, recreational and ecological function. 相似文献
