Resumo: | The intensive farming has been linked to biodiversity loss. However, food production is required to increase to meet the growing demand of the world population. For long-time security, ecological intensification, based on the intensive and smart use of ecosystem services is proposed as a solution. This systematic review investigated the inclusion of ecological intensification in research studies, the motivation (mitigation of impacts on biodiversity or production concerns) behind its adoption by different agricultural interventions (organic farming, integrating farm management or agri-environmental schemes) and identified the associated ecosystem services. A total of 258 articles were included in the final list for review. Most studies were motivated by the mitigation of agricultural impacts on biodiversity, organic and integrated farm management were the most represented, and most studies focused on regulating ecosystem services. No association between motivation and agricultural intervention was found. Examples of ecological intensification were identified in 65 studies (25%); among these, the ones only motivated by biodiversity conservation restricted their analysis to regulating services, while the studies motivated by both production and biodiversity conservation also addressed other types of ecosystem services, namely provisioning services. Moreover, studies assessing agri-environmental schemes often did not include ecological intensification, these studies were mainly motivated by the mitigation of agriculture impacts, in particular, on biodiversity values related to cultural services. Overall, review findings suggest that studies focusing both on biodiversity and agriculture tend to be more motivated by the mitigation of impacts of agriculture, and address less the contribution of biodiversity to agricultural production. This suggests a window of opportunity for agricultural management to strengthen the synergies between biodiversity and production. |

No entanto, é necessário aumentar a produção de alimentos para responder ao aumento da população. A intensificação ecológica apresenta-se como uma solução para conciliar segurança alimentar e proteção da biodiversidade. Este estudo analisou a inclusão de práticas de intensificação ecológica em 258 artigos científicos, a motivação (conservação/mitigação de impactos na biodiversidade ou melhoria da produção) para o uso dessas práticas por diferentes tipos de intervenção agrícola (agricultura biológica e integrada, medidas agroambientais) e identificou os serviços de ecossistema associados. A conservação/mitigação de impactos, a agricultura biológica e integrada, e os serviços de regulação foram, respetivamente, a motivação, intervenções e serviços de ecossistema mais frequentes. Não foi encontrada uma associação entre motivação dominante e tipo de intervenção. Foram identificadas práticas de intensificação ecológica em 65 estudos; entre estes, os estudos motivados por conservação/mitigação focaram essencialmente serviços de regulação, enquanto estudos motivados tanto pela produção como pela conservação da biodiversidade também abordaram outros serviços, nomeadamente provisão de alimento. Não foram detetadas práticas de intensificação ecológica na maioria dos estudos sobre medidas agroambientais, estes estudos têm a conservação/mitigação de impactos como a principal motivação. Os resultados desta revisão sugerem que os estudos sobre biodiversidade e agricultura tendem a ser mais motivados pela conservação ou mitigação de impactos da agricultura na biodiversidade, do que pelos contributos da biodiversidade para a produção agrícola. Tal sugere a existência de uma janela de oportunidade para fortalecer a sinergia entre biodiversidade e produção no âmbito das políticas para a agricultura.2018-04-17T11:43:01Z2017-12-19T00:00:00Z2017-12-192017-10info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfapplication/octet-streamhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/15634TID:201783800engBrandis, Ida Schouinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:28:25Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/15634Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:12:44.538940Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
