An approach to assess the potential of agroecosystems in providing environmental services

Abstract: -The objective of this work was to present an approach to evaluate soil functions in agroecosystems and their impact on environmental services (ES). An approach with case studies was proposed to assess the relationship between the establishment and management of agroecosystems, in three Brazilian biomes (Atlantic Forest, Cerrado, and Caatinga), and their environmental services provision, considering the specificities of each area. A set of soil parameters that can be used as indicators to monitor changes in th… Show more

“…When studying the relationship between the establishment and management of agroecosystems and the provision of ecosystem services in three Brazilian biomes (Atlantic Forest, Cerrado, and Caatinga), Turetta et al [ 74 ] assessed the use of soil parameters as indicators to monitor changes in agroecosystems. They found that water infiltration, nutrient cycling, sediment retention, and carbon sequestration and accumulation are the soil functions most affected by the agroecosystems.…”

“…A partir desses resultados, nota-se que os malezales sobre inceptsols no nordeste de Corrientes são um ecossistema frágil e ameaçado, tanto pela degradação pelo manejo tradicional da pastagem, quanto pela substituição do ecossistema semi-natural por plantações de Pinus. Além disso, a degradação dos malezales é preocupante justamente por estar atrelada à degradação dos inceptsols, o que gera perdas de solo, nutrientes, água e carbono orgânico imobilizado, além da redução da prestação de serviços ambientais (Bertol et al, 2011;Redin et al, 2011;Turetta et al, 2016;Rocha Junior et al, 2017b). A pecuária é a principal fonte de renda regional (Carnevali 1994;Kurtz et al, 2010, Matteucci, 2018, e pode ser altamente afetada caso o processo de degradação dos malezales não seja revertido.…”

“…A queima de pastagens, embora possa ser usada de forma estratégica (Zanini & Sbrissia, 2013), gera grandes perdas de nutrientes e carbono orgânico dos solos. Essas perdas causam aumento da emissão de gases estufa e redução da qualidade química e física das terras e de sua prestação de serviços ambientais (Bertol et al, 2011;Redin et al, 2011;Turetta et al, 2016). Além da perda de qualidade pelo manejo com queima, a interação entre pecuária pobremente manejada e características próprias do ambiente também gerou erosão hídrica em grande parte dos malezales do oeste da província de Corrientes (Kurtz et al, 2010).…”
