Monitoring sustainability of urban agriculture
Consistent evidence is needed of sustainability impacts of urban agriculture. • Proper monitoring requires a comprehensive set of sustainability indicators. • Standardisation is needed to compare over time and space. • Cooperation with interest groups or educational institutions can give valuable data. • Convenient tools for data collection and storage are essential. Urban agriculture is often considered a tool to increase the economic, social an…
Divergent agricultural development pathways across farm and landscape scales in Europe
Current agricultural practices in Europe are increasingly aggravating societal and environmental safety concerns. This creates social and regulatory pressures on farmers, which can lead to declining material and social status of farmers, farmer discontent, and anti-regulation protests. These tensions are rooted in conflicting value systems for agricultural development, which can range from productivist pathways (i.e. valuing production above all …
Planning the first view
The visual impacts of landscape change are important for how people perceive landscapes and whether they consider changes to be positive or negative. Landscape photographs and photographs of landscape elements may capture information about the visual qualities of landscapes and can also be used to illustrate, and even to quantify, how these visual qualities change over time. We developed a methodology for a monitoring scheme, based on taking phot…
Afforestation of a pasture in Norway did not result in higher soil carbon, 50 years after planting
Afforestation of marginal cultivated land is an internationally approved climate mitigation strategy, however, with uncertain implications for soil organic carbon (SOC) storage. We examined the effect of forest planting by measuring SOC at two adjacent sites: one with a Norway spruce forest planted in 1968 and one actively grazed pasture. Both sites had similar land-use history before forest planting, and they were as similar as possible in all o…
Landscape protection as a tool for managing agricultural landscapes in Norway
Relationships between visual landscape preferences and map-based indicators of landscape structure
