Article
The transition toward circular economy (CE) models is increasingly presented as a pathway to greater sustainability in agri-food systems. However, the extent to which CE can foster deeper transformations in intensive farming regions remains a ma[...]
Article
This paper analyses how direct payments under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) affect the economic results, the echo-schemes implementation consumption and ecosystems services of agriculture in Extremadura (south-west Spain). We use a crop-l[...]
Article
PURPOSE: Agroecology is increasingly promoted as a pathway for transforming farming systems toward sustainability, yet its empirical operationalisation often remains confined to specific agronomic practices or certification schemes. This study c[...]
