Conceptualising and mapping polarisation trends in land systems
Polarisation is a key process in land systems, describing land-change trajectories within a region that simultaneously move in opposite directions, such as co-occurring agricultural intensification and abandonment. Land-system polarisation relates strongly to sustainability goals, with potentially positive or negative consequences depending on domain and context. Yet, we lack approaches for mapping polarisation, limiting our understanding of its …
Developing an Agricultural Futures Framework to explore the option space for agricultural change in Europe under alternative value perspectives
European agriculture must transform to confront the many challenges it faces, yet there are different sets of values that may underpin future agricultural change. However, we currently lack thorough understanding of the implications of operationalising these plural values for European land systems. In this article, we apply the IPBES Nature Futures Framework to develop a set of three land-change scenario narratives—the Agricultural Futures Framew…
Agroecological and technological practices in European arable farming
Agroecological and technological innovations are two important approaches in the transition towards agricultural sustainability. We lack knowledge about how current agricultural contexts may influence future development pathways and the relative importance of the two approaches. This study explores the alignment between past uptake of agroecological and technological practices and future visions of agricultural development in seven European arabl…
Power dynamics shape sustainability transitions in a modeled food system
Mapping lock-ins and enabling environments for agri-food sustainability transitions in Europe

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 …
Governing spillovers of agricultural land use through voluntary sustainability standards
Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) are prominent governance instruments that define and verify sustainable agricultural land use at farm and supply chain levels. However, agricultural production can prompt spillover dynamics with implications for sustainability that go beyond these scales, e.g., through runoff of chemical inputs or long-distance migrant worker flows. Scientific evidence on the governance of spillovers through VSS is, howeve…
Developing context-specific frameworks for integrated sustainability assessment of agricultural intensity change
Agriculture plays a central role in achieving most Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Sustainable intensification (SI) of agriculture has been proposed as a promising concept for safeguarding global food security, while simultaneously protecting the environment and promoting good quality of life. However, SI often leads to context-specific sustainability trade-offs. Operationalising SI thus needs to be supported by transparent sustainability a…
The geography of megatrends affecting European agriculture
A range of intensifying pressures is making the future of European agriculture dynamic and contested. Insights into these pressures are needed to inform debates about the future of the sector. In this study, we use a foresight approach to identify, quantify and map megatrends. Megatrends are long-term driving forces which are observable today and will likely have transformational potential in the future. By mapping these megatrends at the regiona…
Land-Use Change in Portugal, 1990–2006
This article studies the processes of land-use change in Portugal between 1990 and 2006 and analyses the effects of different driving forces in shaping land-use patterns during that period. While urbanization and the abandonment of agricultural land were the most prevalent processes between 1990 and 2000, concurrent processes of land abandonment and agriculture intensification seem to have predominated in recent years. Nevertheless, annual rates …
