What practices constitute ‘biodiversity-friendly’ dairy farming? Farmers’ perspectives and local context matter
Farmers vary greatly in how they see themselves and their profession in relation to biodiversity. However, despite its relevance for conservation, little is known about how this informs their ideas of what constitutes ‘biodiversity-friendly’ farming. With this study, we aimed to explore this interplay. We interviewed dairy farmers in two areas in the Netherlands and two in the French Massif Central. In these interviews, we asked farmers general q…
Unlocking the wider potential of aquaculture in circular food systems in Europe
Aquaculture likely plays an important role in future diets, yet the potential of aquaculture to upcycle biomass and supply nutrients in circular food systems remains largely unstudied. Under the circularity paradigm, animal production is constrained by the availability of so called low-opportunity-cost feed (LCF). Aquaculture species differ in their ability to convert LCF into food, and the implication for nutrient supply in food systems are uncl…
Dairy farming and biodiversity
It is crucial that biodiversity conservation initiatives in agriculture take into account how farmers understand and value their relationships with nature. However, while highly relevant for pan‐European conservation work, insight into differences and commonalities in farmers' views across socio‐ecologically different European regions is still lacking. Therefore, we studied how farmers describe the relationship between how they farm and biodivers…
Perceived justice of the Dutch food system transition
Across the world, including in the Netherlands, a transition is unfolding towards sustainable and just food systems. Despite this directionality, the risk remains that the transition process reproduces existing injustices and/or creates new ones. In transitions, perceptions of justice play a critical role as perceived injustices can create disengagement or protest, whereas perceived justice can increase people's willingness to make changes or car…
What about the negatives? An integrated framework for revealing diverse values of nature and its conservation
Taking into account the perspectives of local stakeholders is essential for just and effective biodiversity conservation. Plural valuation, making visible the diverse values people hold in relation to nature, has emerged as a key approach towards better inclusion of stakeholders' perspectives. So far, plural valuation has mainly focused on positive values, leaving equally important negative values underexposed. To address this, a concrete proposa…
Interventions to increase circularity and reduce environmental impacts in food systems
Applying specific circularity interventions to the food system may have environmental benefits. Using an iterative linear food system optimisation model (FOODSOM), we assess how changes in human diets, imports and exports, and the utilisation of waste streams impact land use and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). After including these circularity principles, land use and GHG emissions were on average 40% and 68% lower than in the current food system…
Analysis of strengths and weaknesses of land reform farms of diverse farmers and uses in the Waterberg District, South Africa
In this study, we aimed to analyse the strengths and weaknesses of land reform (LR) farms (‘farm issues’) because the lack of understanding of these issues could partly be the cause of limited livelihood gains from these farms. Furthermore, the examination of these issues provided specific recommendations to each group of farms, which could improve LR farmers' livelihood gains. We investigated 50 LR farms in the Waterberg District Municipality (W…
Easier said than defined? Conceptualising justice in food system transitions
The transition towards sustainable and just food systems is ongoing, illustrated by an increasing number of initiatives that try to address unsustainable practices and social injustices. Insights are needed into what a just transition entails in order to critically engage with plural and potentially conflicting justice conceptualisations. Researchers play an active role in food system transitions, but it is unclear which conceptualisations and pr…
The Promised Land
Appropriating marginal land is seen as a way to overcome a wide range of land-use challenges such as food-feed-fuel competition, avoiding land abandonment, and preserving nature. As a result, there is growing interest in policy and academic communities to identify, define and measure the potential of marginal land to overcome these challenges. However, multiple definitions of marginal land exist due to the various ways of framing the problems and…
Farming system diversity and its drivers in land reform farms of the Waterberg District, South Africa
South Africa implemented land reform for the past two decades to contribute to addressing challenges posed by inequality, poverty and unemployment. Systematic classification of farming system types in land reform is lacking, and distinguishing the types with common characteristics (e.g. farm size, land use activities and livelihood strategies) is essential for implementing targeted agricultural development. In addition, understanding the drivers …
Food, energy or biomaterials? Policy coherence across agro-food and bioeconomy policy domains in the EU
The European Union (EU) envisions a shift towards a bioeconomy to address challenges such as reducing dependence on non-renewable resources, managing natural resources sustainably and food security. As a result, biomass will become an increasingly important resource in the bioeconomy. This will require careful and sustainable management especially because biomass comes from a wide variety of economic sectors and is governed by different policies.…
Understanding transitions in farming systems and their effects on livestock rearing and smallholder livelihoods in Telangana, India
Increasing food demands are causing rapid transitions in farming systems, often involving intensified land and resource use. While transitioning has benefits regarding poverty alleviation and food outputs, it also causes environmental and social issues over time. This study aims to understand the transitions in farming systems in a region in Telangana, from 1997 to 2015, and their effect on livestock rearing and smallholder livelihoods. We also e…

Agriculture in land reform farms
Unmet belongingness needs but not high belongingness needs alone predict adverse well‐being
We add to the current knowledge by emphasizing that especially belongingness needs that exceed relationship satisfaction, regardless of the actual levels of both, contribute to actual health outcomes. Thus, high need to belong is not detrimental per se, but only in combination with low relationship satisfaction. Implications for clinical practice could be to prevent unmet belongingness needs to ultimately alleviate negative affect and self-esteem

Determining the transformative potential of circular agriculture initiatives
Policymakers and scientists regard emerging circular initiatives as levers for transformations towards more sustainable food systems. However, it remains unclear how to determine the extent to which circular initiatives have transformative potential. That is, can these initiatives foster a transformation as a result of how they currently bring circularity into practice? In the transformation literature, the characteristics of transformative initi…
