Abstract:
... Grasslands provide multiple Ecosystem Services (ES) such as forage provision, carbon sequestration or habitat provision. Knowledge about the trade-offs between these ES is of great importance for grassland management. Yet, the outcome of different management strategies on ES provision is highly uncertain due to spatial variability. We aim to characterize the provision (level and spatial variabilit ...

Ecological economics 2018 v.154 pp. 419-429
ISSN:

Subject:
agri-environmental policy; case studies; decision making; ecological value; farmers; logit analysis; models; willingness to pay; Germany
Abstract:
... The random parameter logit model has become the dominating model for analyzing stated choice data in environmental valuation. The unrestricted version of the model with correlated random parameters, however, is rarely applied. An important advantage of this specification is that the correlations between the parameters are not restricted to zero. These correlations can arise due to a behavioural ph ...

Abstract:
... This study assesses the economic value of land use changes in the Zarandul de Est (Romania) Natura 2000 site, applying the ecosystem services approach proposed by the TESSA toolkit. The aim is to provide support to decision-making in the context of high nature value farming, debating the contribution of public subsidies and agri-environmental schemes to farmers' income. Local and global agroforest ...

Subject:
agri-environmental policy; case studies; crop production; decision making; farmers; farmers' attitudes; food security; globalization; governance; irrigated farming; models; natural resources; pollution; poverty; soil resources; Turkey (country)
Abstract:
... Irrigated agriculture has a significant potential for food security and poverty reduction, while it is also associated with broader agri‐environmental changes. These changes include agrarian change in terms of the intensification, globalization and neoliberalization of agriculture, and environmental change due to the pollution, degradation and exploitation of water and soil resources. Farmers are ...

Abstract:
... In this article, we discuss the implementation of two evaluation approaches—the Analytic Hierarchy Process and the cost-effectiveness analysis for political decision-making support in agri-environmental policy. The approaches represent two different ways of evaluation: hierarchical weighting for estimation of immeasurable environmental benefits and effectiveness analysis focused on economic aspect ...
