How Have Markets Affected the Governance of Agrobiodiversity? por Jager, Matthias, Loosen, Irene van, Giuliani, Alessandra

“…However, as markets or other global institutions are not compensating farmers for conserving high levels of agrobiodiversity, these farmers face little private incentive to maintain on-farm conservation practices and may resort to practices that result in reduced levels of agrobiodiversity, leading to the destruction of local food systems and general biodiversity loss. To enhance both agrobiodiversity conservation and income generation through market-based instruments endeavors to place a value on agrobiodiversity that signal its true production cost and contributions to genetic resource usage should be further developed. …”

Impacts of agricultural intensification on farmland birds and risk assessment of pesticide seed treatments por Brodeur, Celine Marie, Poliserpi, Maria Belen

“…Agriculture is nowadays the largest driver of global environmental change, modern agricultural systems being a primary cause of biodiversity loss, including bird declines. Agricultural intensification affects bird populations through both a reduction in landscape heterogeneity and an increase in the use of pesticides, which negatively influences a variety of bird species. …”

Agricultural intensification alters bat assemblage composition and abundance in a dynamic Neotropical landscape por Cleary, Katherine A., Waits, Lisette P., Finegan, Bryan

“…The recent trend of agricultural intensification in tropical landscapes poses a new threat to biodiversity conservation. Conversion of previously heterogeneous agricultural landscapes to intensive plantation agriculture simplifies and homogenizes the landscape, reducing availability, and connectivity of natural habitat for native species. …”

Bridging the Policy and Investment Gap for Payment for Ecosystem Services: Learning from Costa Rican Experience and Roads Ahead por Kim, Juhern, Madrigal, Roger, Alpízar, Francisco, Rojas Fernandez, Silvia, Global Green Growth Institute

“…As forests are lost so are all of the knock-on economic, environmental, and social benefits of ecosystem services provided by those forests (e.g. sequestrating carbon dioxide, regulating hydrological systems, maintaining soil quality, preventing erosion, and hosting biodiversity). In fact, it is estimated that land-use change (mostly deforestation and forest degradation in the tropics) accounts for approximately 20% of annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions when reforestation and afforestation are excluded (Houghton 2013), or about 11% of global emissions when they are included (Searchinger et al. 2013).1 This is a common occurrence especially in developing countries with high rates of population growth, where land is intertwined with livelihood and governments are forced to make tough choices between competing land uses. …”

Surhetstillståndet i bäckar uppströms kalkdoserare i Dalarnas län por Khoussainova, Goulnara

“…The acid deposition of sulphur- and nitrogenoxides from combustion of coal and oil cause acidification that lowers pH and gives increased contents of metals and altered aquatic biodiversity in the stream. The liming of lakes and streams, which was introduced to resist the acidification, demand large economic resourses despite of the decreased deposition of the acidifyng substances. …”
