Can agro-ecosystems efficiently complement protected area networks?

2014-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Threats to biodiversity are often enhanced in human-dominated and densely-populated regions. The prospects for establishing new protected areas are generally more limited in such regions, due to competition with other land-uses. Improving the conservation value of agricultural lands has been proposed as a complementary strategy. Our goal was to compare alternatives for expanding an existing protected area system....
