Abstract

ABSTRACT Soil degradation creates diverse problems across varying dimensions, including food and water insecurity as well as greater vulnerability to climate change especially in Brazil. This uncover the complexity of land use as well as the challenges to asses it. In this article, a multiple case study is presented. Results obtained from three surveys using the IQRM method are discussed to assess the extent to which agricultural land is capable of supporting the uses and management adopted by farmers. When inferring about the degree of adequacy of land use and management, IQRM makes it possible to indicate situations that deserve greater attention because they demonstrate a need for improvements or because they represent references of good environmental performance in a given context. The method IQRM integrated different kinds of knowledge in land use assessment. It is a crucial factor to foster social learning processes and sustainability in the Brazilian context.

评估土地利用关系和农业系统的可持续性：考虑不同观点以促进社会学习

摘要土壤退化造成了不同层面的各种问题，包括粮食和水不安全，以及更容易受到气候变化的影响，尤其是在巴西。这揭示了土地利用的复杂性以及评估土地利用的挑战。讨论了使用IQRM方法进行的三次调查的结果，以评估农业用地能够在多大程度上支持农民的使用和管理。在推断土地使用和管理的充分程度时，IQRM可以指出值得更多关注的情况，因为这些情况表明需要改进，或者因为它们代表了在特定背景下良好的环境绩效。IQRM方法综合了土地利用评价中的各种知识。这是促进巴西社会学习进程和可持续性的一个关键因素。
