Abstract

The continuing biodiversity losses through agricultural expansion and intensification are dramatic. We argue that a mix of on- and off-field measures is needed, overcoming the false dichotomy of the land sharing-sparing debate. Protected land is essential for global biodiversity, while spillover between farmed and natural land is key to reducing species extinctions. This is particularly effective in landscapes with small and diversified fields. Focusing only on protected land fails to conserve a wealth of species, which often provide major ecosystem services such as pest control, pollination, and cultural benefits. On-field measures must minimise yield losses to prevent increased demand for food imports from biodiversity-rich regions, requiring enforcement of high social–ecological land-use standards to ensure a good life for all.

将保护生物多样性的场内外措施结合起来
农业扩张和集约化带来的生物多样性持续损失是巨大的。我们认为,需要将田间和田外措施结合起来,克服土地共享和节约辩论中错误的二分法。保护地对全球生物多样性至关重要,而耕地与自然地之间的溢出效应则是减少物种灭绝的关键。这在田地面积小且多样化的景观中尤为有效。只关注受保护的土地无法保护丰富的物种,这些物种通常提供重要的生态系统服务,如害虫控制、授粉和文化惠益。实地措施必须最大限度地减少产量损失,以防止从生物多样性丰富的地区进口粮食的需求增加,同时要求执行较高的社会生态土地使用标准,以确保所有人过上美好生活。

期刊介绍: Trends in Ecology & Evolution (TREE) is a comprehensive journal featuring polished, concise, and readable reviews, opinions, and letters in all areas of ecology and evolutionary science. Catering to researchers, lecturers, teachers, field workers, and students, it serves as a valuable source of information. The journal keeps scientists informed about new developments and ideas across the spectrum of ecology and evolutionary biology, spanning from pure to applied and molecular to global perspectives. In the face of global environmental change, Trends in Ecology & Evolution plays a crucial role in covering all significant issues concerning organisms and their environments, making it a major forum for life scientists.
