Monitoring Land Use Land-use decisions are based largely on agricultural market values. However, such can lead to losses of ecosystem services, as the provision wildlife habitat or recreational space, magnitude which may overwhelm any benefits. In a research project forming part UK National Ecosystem Assessment, Bateman et al. (p. 45 ) estimate value these net losses. Policies that recognize diversity and complexity natural environment target changes different areas so radically improve land...
Abstract Twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being 1,2 , addressing the global biodiversity crisis 3 still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values into decision-making. These include powerful interests supported by current norms and legal rules such as property rights, which determine whose of nature are acted on. A better understanding how why is (under)valued more urgent than ever 4 . Notwithstanding...
With more than 60% of the land farmed, with vulnerable freshwater and marine environments, one most intensive, export-oriented livestock sectors in world, nitrogen (N) pollution pressure from Danish agriculture is severe. Consequently, a series policy action plans have been implemented since mid 1980s significant effects on surplus, efficiency environmental loadings N. This paper reviews policies actions taken their ability to mitigate reactive N (Nr) while maintaining agricultural...
Throughout the world, nitrogen (N) losses from intensive agricultural production may end up as undesirably high concentrations of nitrate in groundwater with a long-term impact on quality. This has human and environmental health consequences, due to use drinking water resource, causes eutrophication groundwater-dependent ecosystems such wetlands, rivers near-coastal areas. At national scale, measured trends Danish oxic last 70 years correlate well annual N surpluses. We also show that...
European agri-environmental policy has diverse and competing objectives. The Common Agricultural Policy been the main framework guiding Union (EU) its member states in design implementation of both mandatory voluntary instruments. Voluntary schemes, which were introduced 1990s, continue to play a central role meeting EU's environmental climate We find that achieving their objectives these schemes have faced problems including limited impact, low adoption by farmers, conflicts between income...

Summary Eco‐schemes are set to play an important role in the European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) post‐2022 for delivery of environmental and climate benefits enhanced animal welfare. This article surveys current plans design eco‐schemes fifteen Union Member States.

Backed by the Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 and 2030, numerous 'Mapping Assessment of Ecosystem Services' (MAES) projects have been completed in recent years member states European Union, with substantial results insights accumulated. The experience from different approaches is a valuable source information for developing assessment processes further, especially regard their uptake into policy more recently, ecosystem accounting. Systematic towards best practices lessons learned national...
