© 2016 The royal danish Geographical society CONTACT simon swaffield swaffies@lincoln.ac.nz Urbanisation, population growth, limited land and environmental concerns are putting the world’s farmers under growing pressure to increase productivity in sustainable ways (Lambin & Meyfroidt, 2011). Policy responses include seeking greater efficiency of production and distribution through globalisation of technologies (Coleman, Grant, & Josling, 2004), intensification of farming systems (Reenberg & Fenger, 2011; Rudel et al., 2009), integration of global food networks (Dickson-Hoyle & Reenberg, 2009; Ericksen, 2008) and creation of more open markets (Anderson & Josling, 2005). At the same time, sustainability scientists warn of the environmental risks and consequences of agricultural intensification (Tilman, Cassman, Matson, Naylor, & Polasky, 2002); urban consumers demand higher moral and environmental standards in their food supply (Morgan, Marsden, & Murdoch, 2007); and society requires a growing range of material and non-material ecosystem services from production landscapes (Wratten, Sandhu, Cullen, & Costanza, 2013). At the local landscape level, farmers manage land as producers, owners and citizens (Primdahl & Kristensen, 2011; Primdahl, Kristensen, & Busck, 2013b). The way they do this and how they combine the three roles depends on the nature and locality of the biophysical landscape, the farmer’s own situation (full-time farmer, tenant farmer, lifestyle farmer and employed farm workers), the local community (or lack of it), the impacts of urbanisation upon peri-urban and rural landscapes (Orsini, 2013; Primdahl, Kristensen, & Swaffield, 2013a; Zasada, Fertner, Piorr, & Nielsen, 2011) and the farmers’ relationships with the wider market trends and policy agenda (Plieninger & Beiling, 2012; Primdahl & Swaffield, 2010). Thus, the ways that agricultural landscapes are structured and function vary enormously, even within the developed world, and these diverse processes and relationships raise significant policy design and implementation questions about how to effectively integrate efficient global food supply systems with sustainable management of local landscapes as settings for living, working and service provision (Primdahl & Swaffield, 2010; Primdahl et al 2013b; Swaffield & Primdahl, 2014; Termorshuizen & Opdam, 2009). One common feature, however, is that the links between local landscapes and the rest of the world are becoming increasingly complex and interrelated (BirchThomsen & Kristensen, 2005; Mertz, Wadley, & Christensen, 2005). Globalisation means that decisions and practices in particular landscapes become relatively less related to local and regional contexts, and increasingly linked to (affecting and affected by) decisions and practices in other distal landscapes (Reenberg & Primdahl, 2009). Land use in an urbanised world is becoming telecoupled (Seto & Reenberg, 2014), and local landscapes increasingly become linked to multi-dimensio
©2016丹麦皇家地理学会CONTACT simon swaffield swaffies@lincoln.ac.nz城市化、人口增长、有限的土地和环境问题正使世界农民面临越来越大的压力,必须以可持续的方式提高生产力(Lambin & Meyfroidt, 2011)。政策回应包括通过技术全球化寻求更高的生产和分配效率(Coleman, Grant, & Josling, 2004),农业系统集约化(Reenberg & Fenger, 2011;Rudel et al., 2009),全球食品网络整合(Dickson-Hoyle & Reenberg, 2009;Ericksen, 2008)和创造更开放的市场(Anderson & Josling, 2005)。与此同时,可持续发展科学家警告了农业集约化的环境风险和后果(Tilman, Cassman, Matson, Naylor, & Polasky, 2002);城市消费者在食品供应方面要求更高的道德和环境标准(Morgan, Marsden, & Murdoch, 2007);社会需要从生产景观中获得越来越多的物质和非物质生态系统服务(Wratten, Sandhu, Cullen, & Costanza, 2013)。在地方景观层面,农民以生产者、所有者和公民的身份管理土地(Primdahl & Kristensen, 2011;Primdahl, Kristensen, & Busck, 2013)。他们这样做的方式以及他们如何将这三种角色结合起来取决于生物物理景观的性质和地点、农民自己的情况(全职农民、租客农民、生活方式农民和受雇的农场工人)、当地社区(或缺乏社区)、城市化对城郊和农村景观的影响(Orsini, 2013;Primdahl, Kristensen, & Swaffield, 2013;Zasada, Fertner, Piorr, & Nielsen, 2011)以及农民与更广泛的市场趋势和政策议程的关系(Plieninger & Beiling, 2012;Primdahl & Swaffield, 2010)。因此,即使在发达国家,农业景观的结构和功能方式也存在巨大差异,这些不同的过程和关系提出了重要的政策设计和实施问题,即如何有效地将高效的全球粮食供应系统与当地景观的可持续管理结合起来,作为生活、工作和服务提供的环境(Primdahl & Swaffield, 2010;Primdahl等2013;Swaffield & Primdahl, 2014;Termorshuizen & Opdam, 2009)。然而,一个共同的特征是,当地景观与世界其他地区之间的联系正变得越来越复杂和相互关联(BirchThomsen & Kristensen, 2005;Mertz, Wadley, & Christensen, 2005)。全球化意味着特定景观中的决策和实践与当地和区域背景的相关性相对较低,而与其他远端景观中的决策和实践的联系(影响和影响)越来越多(Reenberg & Primdahl, 2009)。城市化世界中的土地利用正变得远耦合(Seto & Reenberg, 2014),当地景观越来越多地与以非嵌套层次结构组织的多维网络联系在一起(Swaffield & Primdahl, 2006)。因此,当地景观管理实践与市场过程、公共政策和其他尺度上的商业决策之间的关系变得脱节和不对称。这反过来意味着与当地农业景观相关的政策问题变得更加难以定义,既没有直接的解决方案,也没有“最佳”的解决方案。简而言之,它们变成了“邪恶的”问题(Rittel & Webber, 1973)。

Abstract The Erasmus programme is generally considered the flagship of intra-European exchange programmes in higher education, with more than three million participants since 1987. Whereas a number of studies investigated the determinants of student mobility decisions, no knowledge exists on the main destination cities of European exchange students. Our research note aims at filling this gap in the academic literature. Making use of a unique data-set from the European Commission containing micro-level data on the full population of Erasmus students for study purposes in 2012–2013 (n = 211,267), we provide a descriptive overview of the spatial distribution of Erasmus students at the city level. The results reveal that European exchange students are mainly attracted by capitals and second-tier metropolitan cities. Furthermore, the analysis reveals significant variation regarding the main region of origin of mobile students within most destination countries.
伊拉斯谟项目通常被认为是欧洲内部高等教育交流项目的旗舰,自1987年以来已有300多万参与者。虽然许多研究调查了学生流动决策的决定因素,但没有关于欧洲交换学生的主要目的地城市的知识。我们的研究报告旨在填补这一学术文献的空白。利用欧盟委员会的独特数据集,其中包含2012-2013年伊拉斯谟学生全部人口的微观数据(n = 211,267),我们提供了伊拉斯谟学生在城市层面的空间分布的描述性概述。结果显示,吸引欧洲交换生的主要是首都和二线大都市。此外,分析显示,在大多数目的地国家,流动学生的主要原籍地区存在显著差异。

Abstract This paper explores the role of so-called wine trails as planners and managers of viticultural landscapes, using the case of the Finger Lakes region in New York, USA. Using key informant interviews, it assesses the current capacity and the future potential of these non-governmental, fee-based ‘clubs’ to mediate between global markets and the local agricultural landscape in the absence of policy frameworks designed for this purpose. Though it finds little evidence of such mediation today, the paper argues that the structure and institutional position of wine trails, organizations whose members’ livelihoods depend substantially on long-term landscape coherence, position them to play a more assertive role in doing so in the future, particularly in places marked by lax planning regimes and scarce resources.
摘要本文以美国纽约芬格湖地区为例,探讨了所谓的葡萄酒小径作为葡萄栽培景观规划者和管理者的作用。通过对关键信息提供者的访谈,它评估了这些非政府的、收费的“俱乐部”在没有为此目的设计的政策框架的情况下,在全球市场和当地农业景观之间进行调解的目前能力和未来潜力。虽然今天没有发现这种调解的证据,但论文认为,葡萄酒之路的结构和制度地位,其成员的生计基本上依赖于长期的景观一致性,使他们在未来发挥更坚定的作用,特别是在规划制度松散和资源稀缺的地方。

Pathways to sustainable landscape management: peer recognition as an indicator of effective ‘soft’ actions 可持续景观管理的途径:同行认可作为有效“软”行动的指标

New Zealand is a food producer and exporter that combines neoliberal policy with performance-based environmental management, using ‘soft’ governance and actions where possible. Voluntary environmental farm awards are analysed to identify the landscape management activities recognised as best practice by peers at a farm level. Results highlight the importance of whole farm system management. However, the efficacy of reliance upon voluntary mechanisms is coming under increasingly critical scrutiny, as environmental conditions in intensive agricultural landscapes continue to decline. The research question this poses is whether whole farm plans can be practically and formally connected in three concurrent ways – to supply chain management, and to statutory planning frameworks and environmental regulations and to local landscape co-management – while still maintaining flexibility of action for the farmer.
新西兰是一个食品生产国和出口国,将新自由主义政策与基于绩效的环境管理相结合,在可能的情况下使用“软”治理和行动。对自愿环保农场奖进行分析,以确定在农场层面上被同行认可的最佳景观管理活动。结果突出了整个农场系统管理的重要性。然而,随着集约化农业景观的环境条件继续恶化,依赖自愿机制的效力正受到越来越严格的审查。这就提出了一个研究问题,即整个农场的计划是否能够以三种同时发生的方式——供应链管理、法定规划框架和环境法规以及当地景观的共同管理——实际和正式地联系起来,同时仍然保持农民行动的灵活性。

Climate change has effects on crop distribution and production due to altering precipitation and temperature patterns. Northeast China is one of the most sensitive areas affected by climate change. In this study, MODIS09A1 data from MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer incorporated with phenology data from 21 agro-meteorological stations were used to monitor the dynamic change of corn distribution in response to climate change in the Northeast China for the decade of 2001 and 2010. Corn area estimates and statistics had the same change trend from 2001 to 2010 showing an annual increase. Furthermore, in order to analyse the gravity centre variations of the corn distribution, regions were chosen with corn planting areas of more than 500 km2. Results showed that the main corn planting area had a trend to move towards high latitude and high longitude in response to climate change. It moved towards north about .58 degrees and east about .21 degrees between 2001 and 2010. The analysis of temperature and precipitation patterns revealed the same trend as the corn planting area. However, the corn area change was more sensitive to temperature than precipitation in Northeast China.
由于降水和温度模式的改变,气候变化对作物分布和生产产生了影响。中国东北是受气候变化影响最敏感的地区之一。利用2001 - 2010年中国东北地区玉米分布对气候变化的响应,结合21个农业气象站的物候资料,利用中分辨率成像光谱仪MODIS09A1数据对玉米分布响应的动态变化进行了监测。玉米面积估计值与统计数据在2001 - 2010年的变化趋势相同,呈逐年增加的趋势。此外,为了分析玉米分布的重心变化,选择玉米种植面积大于500 km2的区域。结果表明:受气候变化影响,玉米主产区有向高纬度、高经度移动的趋势;在2001年至2010年间,它向北移动了0.58度,向东移动了0.21度。温度和降水的变化趋势与玉米种植面积的变化趋势一致。东北地区玉米面积变化对温度的敏感性大于对降水的敏感性。

Abstract Assessing coastal vulnerability to sea level rise (SLR) at local and regional scales is a fundamental step for designing successful long-term coastal management plans. This study was thus designed to assess Kuwait coastal vulnerability to SLR at four scenarios (.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 m). Potential inundated areas and the number of people at risk were estimated based on these SLR scenarios. A coastal vulnerability index (CVI) map of Kuwait was then computed based on the lowest scenario using eight parameters: elevation, coastal slope, geomorphology, distance to 20-m isobath, population, land use, cultural heritage and transportation. The geographic distribution of inundated areas at an SLR of .5 m revealed that the northern islands of Kuwait and coastal areas along Kuwait Bay would be highly impacted, whereas the coastal area near Shuaibah Port was the most influenced among the southern coasts. Most of the coastal area exhibited a moderate vulnerability to SLR, especially the northern islands. This study presented an initial vulnerability assessment for Kuwait coasts to SLR, which can be extended with more variables. The integrated remote sensing and geographic information system methodology demonstrated in this study can be applied in similar studies elsewhere.
在地方和区域尺度上评估沿海对海平面上升的脆弱性是设计成功的长期沿海管理计划的基本步骤。因此,本研究旨在评估科威特沿海地区在四种情景下对SLR的脆弱性。5、1、1.5和2米)。根据这些单反情景,估计了潜在的淹没面积和面临风险的人数。然后,根据最低情景计算科威特的沿海脆弱性指数(CVI)地图,使用8个参数:海拔、海岸坡度、地貌、到20米等深线的距离、人口、土地利用、文化遗产和交通。海平面高度为0.5 m时被淹没地区的地理分布表明,科威特北部岛屿和科威特湾沿岸地区将受到严重影响,而南部海岸中Shuaibah港附近的沿海地区受影响最大。大部分沿海地区表现出中等程度的单反脆弱性,特别是北部岛屿。本研究提出了科威特海岸对SLR的初步脆弱性评估,该评估可以扩展到更多变量。本研究展示的综合遥感和地理信息系统方法可以应用于其他地方的类似研究。

Improved land tenure not the driver of economic development in a Vietnamese community 改善土地使用权并不是越南社区经济发展的驱动力

Abstract During the restructuring of the Vietnamese economy in 1986, the Communist party of Vietnam (CPV) took the decision to leave central planning and build a market economy in Vietnam. In order to promote rural development and deal with deforestation, poverty and declining agricultural profitability, the government implemented the forestland allocation policies (FLA) and started a process of decentralization. This research note examines the impact of FLA policies on the agricultural practices of an upland community in central Vietnam and discusses the effects of increased tenure security. It is shown that the promotion of a sedentary production system has altered the sustainability of swidden agriculture leading to declining profitability and that a transition towards new crops and specialized crop cultivation has compensated for the loss. Furthermore, it is argued that the FLA policies have increased the villagers’ incentive to invest, their access to credit and the forest area of the village, but that the CPV has been the main driver of these changes rather than the increased tenure security.
在1986年越南经济结构调整期间,越南共产党(CPV)决定在越南退出中央计划经济,建立市场经济。为了促进农村发展,解决森林砍伐、贫困和农业效益下降的问题,政府实施了林地分配政策(FLA),开始了权力下放的过程。本研究报告考察了FLA政策对越南中部一个高地社区农业实践的影响,并讨论了权属保障增加的影响。研究表明,定居生产系统的推广改变了快速农业的可持续性,导致盈利能力下降,向新作物和专门作物种植的过渡弥补了损失。此外,作者认为,公平竞争政策增加了村民的投资动机、获得信贷的机会和村庄的森林面积,但CPV是这些变化的主要驱动因素,而不是权属保障的增加。

Abstract Farm production practices often focus on mitigating negative consequences of cropping – particularly annual crops like corn, cereals and oilseeds. Some of North America’s most-intensive farmlands are rapidly converting their remaining perennial cover to annual crops. While perennial cover like woodlands, grasslands and wetlands are valued for the many landscape services they provide, they are vulnerable to conversion to other cover types under drivers of landscape change. Conversions within farms constitute nuances rather than new land uses, yet landscape composition effects can be substantial when considering habitat, biodiversity, soil and water quality, carbon sequestration, and aesthetics. As the farm landscape becomes increasingly dominated by annual crop vegetation, the key drivers behind land cover types and management merit critical examination. This paper reviews recent studies on farmland composition and management in central Canada and the United States, identifying trajectories and magnitudes of landscape changes. To consider forces, both speculative examination of policies and information from farmer interviews help identify motivations for changes in perennial or annual proportions of farm landscapes. The paper concludes with forces that increase perennialization and existing or prospective pathways to improve the balance between annual and perennial vegetation.
农业生产实践往往侧重于减轻种植的负面影响,尤其是玉米、谷物和油籽等一年生作物。北美一些集约化程度最高的农田正在迅速将其剩余的多年生植被转变为一年生作物。虽然林地、草地和湿地等多年生覆盖因其提供的许多景观服务而受到重视,但在景观变化的驱动下,它们很容易转变为其他覆盖类型。农场内部的转换构成了细微差别,而不是新的土地用途,然而,考虑到栖息地、生物多样性、土壤和水质、碳封存和美学,景观构成效应可能是实质性的。随着农场景观越来越多地由一年生作物植被主导,土地覆盖类型和管理背后的关键驱动因素值得认真研究。本文综述了加拿大中部和美国最近的农田组成和管理研究,确定了景观变化的轨迹和幅度。为了考虑力量,政策的推测性检查和农民访谈的信息都有助于确定农场景观多年生或年度比例变化的动机。最后提出了增加多年生化的力量和改善一年生植被与多年生植被平衡的现有或未来途径。

Abstract Around towns in the Alentejo region, the landscape is dominated by a characteristic agricultural small-scale mosaic. These areas are central in the region landscape character – even if the large-scale latifundia landscape of the extensive silvo-pastoral systems is most commonly associated with the region. In the last two decades, these parcels became extremely attractive for new comers, who settle in the rural context as residents, week-end visitors, being often also lifestyle farmers. The paper presents a case study landscape, in Montemor-o-Novo, a small town 100 km from Lisbon, highly subject to the pressure for consumption uses, by urban users. The study shows that the new owners, even if they have settled in the area due to the tranquility and social bindings of the rural, end up doing farming, with new or reshaped production objectives, markets and models, but at the same time maintaining the traditional farm systems. Thus, the landscape character is maintained, so far. Nevertheless, the role of these neo-rurals and lifestyle farmers is still an unseen role, both by the agriculture and the planning sectors. And thus the question is, whether the combination of actors and land management drivers will continue maintaining the landscape in the future.
在阿连特茹地区的城镇周围,景观以具有特色的小型农业马赛克为主。这些地区是该地区景观特征的中心,尽管广泛的银-牧系统的大尺度大庄园景观通常与该地区联系在一起。在过去的二十年里,这些地块对新来者变得非常有吸引力,他们定居在农村环境中,作为居民,周末游客,通常也是生活方式的农民。本文介绍了一个案例研究景观,在蒙特雷-诺沃,一个距离里斯本100公里的小镇,高度受到城市用户消费使用的压力。研究表明,由于农村的宁静和社会约束,新的所有者即使定居在该地区,最终也会从事农业,具有新的或重塑的生产目标,市场和模式,但同时保持传统的农业制度。因此,到目前为止,景观特征得以保持。然而,这些新农村和生活方式农民的角色仍然是一个看不见的角色,无论是农业部门还是规划部门。因此,问题是,行动者和土地管理驱动因素的结合是否会在未来继续维持景观。

Abstract Migration to domestic and international destinations has become an emblematic feature of Nepal’s societal changes. Part of this development is education migration from rural to urban areas within the borders of Nepal, an often overlooked but increasingly important aspect of contemporary migration flows. By focusing on these educational migrants, this paper explores how they connect to their rural homes. Guided by a critical reading of the migration-development scholarship, the paper examines how migrants and their relatives make sense of educational migrants’ remitting and returning practices, and by comparing three groups of educational migrants, the migrants’ reasons for staying connected and sending remittances are scrutinized. The paper finds that although educational migrants do not generate extensive economic remittances for local development in Nepal, they stay connected to their rural homes and partake in important social remittance practices that represent a vision for impacting local development.
向国内和国际目的地的移民已经成为尼泊尔社会变革的一个标志性特征。这一发展的一部分是尼泊尔境内从农村到城市地区的教育移民,这是当代移民流动中经常被忽视但日益重要的一个方面。通过关注这些教育移民,本文探讨了他们与农村家园的联系。在对移民发展研究的批判性解读的指导下,本文考察了移民及其亲属如何理解教育移民的汇款和回返行为,并通过比较三组教育移民,审视了移民保持联系和汇款的原因。本文发现,尽管教育移民没有为尼泊尔的地方发展带来广泛的经济汇款,但他们与农村家庭保持联系,并参与了重要的社会汇款实践,代表了影响当地发展的愿景。
