Determinants of land use change: evidence from a community study in Honduras por Bergeron, Gilles, Pender, John L.

“…Econometric analysis suggests that land use intensification was influenced by plot level variables (especially altitude, slope, distance to a road and tenure), farm level variables (human capital, farm size, and ownership of productive implements), and by community variables (especially presence of technical assistance programs).To the extent these results are found to be more broadly representative, they suggest that there may be good potential to promote income-enhancing horticultural development through investments in technical assistance and education in similar communities elsewhere in Honduras. …”

Diversified rice farms with vegetable plots and flower strips are associated with fewer pesticide applications in the Philippines por Horgan, Finbarr G., Mundaca, Enrique A., Hadi, Buyung A. R., Crisol-Martínez, Eduardo

“…Ecological engineering is defined as the design of sustainable ecosystems for the benefit of both human society and the environment. In Southeast Asia, researchers have applied ecological engineering by diversifying farms using flower strips to restore regulatory services to rice ecosystems and thereby reduce herbivore-related yield losses and overall pesticide use. …”
