C. Zagaria ; C.J.E. Schulp ; Z. Malek ; P.H. Verburg |CONTEXT The Mediterranean Basin has been identified as a climate change 'hotspot', a region where increased warming and drying are expected to occur at rates faster than the global average. Increasing scientific attention has therefore been draw[...]

Herzog |It has been shown that the COVID-19 pandemic affected some agricultural systems more than others, and even within geographic regions, not all farms were affected to the same extent. To build resilience of agricultural systems to future shocks, i[...]
Article
The intensification, extensification and abandonment of agricultural land will each play a major role in the future development of European landscapes. However, their impacts on various dimensions of sustainability vary spatially. This creates c[...]
Article
N. Debonne ; M. Bürgi ; V. Diogo ; J. Helfenstein ; F. Herzog ; C. Levers ; F. Mohr ; R. Swart ; P.H. Verburg |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 identi[...]
Article
The European Green Deal sets targets for biodiversity, climate change, sustainable farming, and rural development. For abandoned agricultural lands to contribute to these goals, specific policy measures to support appropriate land management are[...]
Article
J. Helfenstein ; V. Diogo ; M. Bürgi ; P.H. Verburg ; B. Schüpbach ; E. Szerencsits ; F. Mohr ; M. Siegrist ; R. Swart ; F. Herzog |There is broad agreement that agriculture has to become more sustainable in order to provide enough affordable, healthy food at minimal environmental and social costs. But what is “more sustainable”? More often than not, different stakeholders h[...]
Article
Agricultural land abandonment and its impacts on landscape features have been a striking characteristic of many European rural areas over the last decades. Although previous research identified drivers and environmental impacts of abandonment, f[...]
Article
Modelling future change to land use and land cover is done as part of many local and global scenario environmental assessments. Nevertheless, there are still considerable challenges related to simulating land-use responses to climate change. Mos[...]

Modelling transformational adaptation to climate change among crop farming systems in Romagna, Italy
C. Zagaria ; C. Zagaria ; C.J.E. Schulp ; M. Zavalloni ; D. Viaggi ; P.H. Verburg |As the impact of climate change on the agricultural sector has begun to manifest itself in its severity, adaptation planning has come under scrutiny for favoring the preservation of status-quo conditions over more substantial changes. The uptake[...]
Article
Agency shifts in agricultural land governance and their implications for land degradation neutrality
Given current land degradation trends, Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN, SDG Target 15.3) by 2030 could be difficult to attain. Solutions to avoid, reduce, and reverse land degradation are not being implemented at sufficiently large scales, poin[...]
Article
Organic farming has been proposed as a feasible way to reduce the environmental impacts of agriculture, provide better products to consumers, and improve farmers' income. How organic farmers are distributed worldwide, however, remains unknown. U[...]

Piorr |The restoration and improvement of natural capital (NC) in rural areas represents one of the main objectives of the EU’s rural development policy (RDP). In addition to creating environmental and biodiversity benefits, NC represents an important [...]
Article
Z. Malek ; P.H. Verburg |Meeting the growing demand for food in the future will require adaptation of water and land management to future conditions. We studied the extent of different adaptation options to future global change in the Mediterranean region, under scenari[...]
Article
P.H. Verburg ; O. Mertz ; K.-H. Erb ; H. Haberl ; W. Wu |Land system changes are central to the food security challenge.
