Combining social, ecological and economic approaches in knowledge co‐production enables the identification of sustainable farming options
Farming systems face an increasing sustainability challenge requiring integrated solutions to minimize the trade‐offs between the social, ecological and economic dimensions of sustainability. Yet, most research remains siloed, limiting interdisciplinary understanding of farming systems as coupled social‐ecological systems (SESs) and precluding holistic solutions. Addressing this gap, we employed an interdisciplinary knowledge co‐production approa…
Multiple ways to bend the curve of biodiversity loss: An analytical framework to support transformative change
Humans are significantly impacting ecosystems worldwide. Scientists of the IPBES Global Assessment are therefore calling for a transformative change that includes all aspects of society in order to address drivers of biodiversity loss. However, these calls are rather abstract, and thus it remains unclear how this goal can be achieved. With this conceptual contribution, we present an analytical framework for evaluating existing processes of societ…
Prioritizing partners and products for the sustainability of the EU’s agri-food trade
Global agri-food systems couple sustainability challenges in producing countries to consumption behavior and regulations in destination markets. We assume that trade relations can be prioritized according to (1) the relevance (share of imports) and (2) leverage (share of domestic production for destination market). This study analyzes the relevance and leverage of the EU’s crop imports in monetary values, footprints, and deforestation. Our result…
Governing anthropogenic assets for nature’s contributions to people in forests: A policy document analysis
Forests support human wellbeing by providing multiple nature’s contributions to people (NCP). These are derived from an interplay of both natural and anthropogenic assets, which is a process known as NCP co-production. Like forests and NCP, anthropogenic assets are subject to modes of governance operating across multiple levels, in which policies are a central tool for executing formal governance. Here, we conduct a policy document analysis to in…
Action needed for the EU Common Agricultural Policy to address sustainability challenges
Making agriculture sustainable is a global challenge. In the European Union (EU), the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is failing with respect to biodiversity, climate, soil, land degradation as well as socio‐economic challenges. The European Commission's proposal for a CAP post‐2020 provides a scope for enhanced sustainability. However, it also allows Member States to choose low‐ambition implementation pathways. It therefore remains essential to…
A greener path for the EU Common Agricultural Policy
It's time for sustainable, environmental performance
Combining policy analyses, exploratory scenarios, and integrated modelling to assess land use policy options
Transferring Williamson's discriminating alignment to the analysis of environmental governance of social-ecological interdependence
Cross Compliance as payment for public goods? Understanding EU and US agricultural policies
Sustaining ecosystem services in cultural landscapes
Classical conservation approaches focus on the man-made degradation of ecosystems and tend to neglect the socialecological values that human land uses have imprinted on many environments. Throughout the world, ingenious land-use practices have generated unique cultural landscapes, but these are under pressure from agricultural intensification, land abandonment, and urbanization. In recent years, the cultural landscapes concept has been broadly ad…
Exploring Futures of Ecosystem Services in Cultural Landscapes through Participatory Scenario Development in the Swabian Alb, Germany
Plieninger, T., C. Bieling, B. Ohnesorge, H. Schaich, C. Schleyer, and F. Wolff. 2013. Exploring futures of ecosystem services in cultural landscapes through participatory scenario development in the Swabian Alb, Germany. Ecology and Society 18(3): 39. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-05802-180339
