Abstract

•
Agroecosystem research often focuses on biophysical processes and productivity without incorporating human dimensions research and/or stakeholder engagement.
•
Connecting individual and community well-being to agro-innovation research is required for agro-ecological transformation to sustainable intensification.
•
Long-Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network sites have historically had varied degrees of human dimensions research within their research plan; however, LTAR's human dimensions capacity has grown.
•
To capitalize on this capacity, we propose a four-step framework for the LTAR Network to evolve a cohesive human dimensions strategy that brings together the social and ecological.
•
Continued institutional support is required to maintain and further pursue research that will support stakeholder co-developed science that facilitates agroecosystem transformations benefiting society.

整合LTAR网络中的人的维度实现农业生态系统转型

•农业生态系统研究往往侧重于生物物理过程和生产力，而没有纳入人的维度研究和/或利益相关者的参与。•将个人和社区福祉与农业创新研究联系起来，是农业生态转型实现可持续集约化的必要条件。•长期农业生态系统研究(LTAR)网络站点在其研究计划中历来有不同程度的人类维度研究;然而，LTAR的人类维度能力已经增长。•为了充分利用这一能力，我们为LTAR网络提出了一个四步框架，以发展一个将社会和生态结合在一起的有凝聚力的人的维度战略。•需要持续的机构支持，以维持和进一步开展研究，支持利益相关者共同开发的科学，促进农业生态系统转型，造福社会。
