Agricultural crops and pasturelands cover 24â38% of the global land area, and thus the ecological services that agricultural systems provide are of utmost societal importance. An important determinant of ecosystem services provision from European farmland is the amount and spatial arrangement of trees, shrubs and woodlands that are integrated into the respective land-use systems.
Changes affecting livestock farming systems have made farm work a central concern for both the sector and for farmers themselves.
