Grazing in silvopastoral systems: multiple solutions for diversified benefits
Silvopastoral systems are multifunctional systems that combine herbage, shrub and tree layers with grazing animals in a single site. The multiple possible combinations of components within these…
Agroforestry for sustainable landscape management
Agroforestry and sustainable landscape management are key strategies for implementing the UN-Sustainable Development Goals across the world’s production landscapes. However, both strategies have so…
Floristic diversity in grasslands according to plant formation in the Shullcas river sub-basin, Junin, Peru
The aim of the study is to evaluate the floristic diversity of mountain pastures in five plant formations: three pajonal and one puna grass. The Parker modified step transection method (1951) was…

Composition and floral diversity in Andean grasslands in natural post-harvest restoration with Lepidium meyenii Walpers
TLDR
The greatest richness and abundance was observed between five- and eight years of abandonment, due to the greater presence of perennial species, and linear correspondence of alpha richness and diversity with organic matter, nitrogen, soil phosphorus and abandonment time was observed.
Restoring soil carbon and chemical properties through silvopastoral adoption in the Colombian Amazon region
Silvopastoral systems (SPS) have been widely implemented in the Colombian Amazon region to improve pastures involving a greater diversity of species, soil tillage, fertilization, and higher stocking…
Labelling in Mediterranean agroforestry landscapes: a Delphi study on relevant sustainability indicators
In the face of unsustainable land-use changes including intensified agricultural production and land abandonment, agroforestry systems have the potential to support a diversity of social and…

TLDR
This study assesses the supply of ES in four study areas dominated by managed wood-pastures in Spain, Sweden, and Romania and identifies four types of trade-offs in ES supply that appear depending on what is being promoted by the farm management and that are associated with different dimensions of wood- Pasture management.
