REVIEW: Do polycultures promote win‐wins or trade‐offs in agricultural ecosystem services? A meta‐analysis

Abstract: Summary1. Agriculture comprises the largest global land use, makes it a leading cause of habitat loss. It is therefore critical to identify how to best construct agricultural systems that can simultaneously provide food and other ecosystem services. This challenge requires that we determine how to maximize win-win relationships and minimize trade-offs between services. 2. Through meta-analysis, we tested whether within-field crop diversification (polyculture) can lead to win-win relationships between two ecosy… Show more

“…Para el maíz, esta sobrecosecha fue comprobada para climas tropicales y templados (Iverson et al, 2014). Esto explica por qué el rendimiento por planta del maíz fue superior al monocultivo en su asociación con el frijol y con la calabaza (Figura 1).…”

“…La milpa es además un policultivo suplementario, donde se reduce la densidad de siembra del cultivo principal (en el caso de la milpa, el maíz) para dejar espacio para uno o varios cultivos asociados. Se distingue de policultivos aditivos, donde la densidad de siembra del cultivo principal se mantiene constante (Iverson et al, 2014).…”

“…Plants growing in mixtures can complement each other in the uptake of resources which enables increased plant community productivity and build-up of soil C-and N stocks, as well as reduced pathogen pressure (De Deyn et al 2009;Schnitzer et al 2011;Cong et al 2014;Iverson et al 2014). Conversely, in agro-ecosystems crops are often grown in monocultures, however these systems offer an intermediate stage towards the complexity of natural plant-and soil biodiversity as plant diversity in time is or can be easily integrated in the system (Mariotte et al 2018).…”

“…Additionally, mixtures promote the build-up of soil C-and N-stocks (De Deyn et al 2009;Cong et al 2014), and reduce pest pressure (Schnitzer et al 2011;Iverson et al 2014), forming potential feed-backs to subsequent-plant growth.…”
