Sites side by side: Can an agglomeration bonus with an adjacency rule connect agri-environmental sites?
Many species need to cross landscapes for dispersal or seasonal migration. In view of the biodiversity crisis and increasing landscape fragmentation, incentives are needed to foster landscape connectivity and improve spatial coordination of protected sites across privately owned land. A large body of theoretical work and lab studies proposes that an agglomeration bonus could incentivize farmers to enroll adjacent fields to enhance landscape connectivity. This study empirically investigates a network bonus scheme in Switzerland with a dataset covering 322 program areas. In some program areas, farmers can receive the network bonus only if they are compliant with an adjacency rule of 100 m between sites, a policy that corresponds to an agglomeration bonus. In other areas, this rule does not apply, i.e. farmers can apply for the same bonus but irrespective of the location of their field vis-à-vis others. We empirically compare the impact of this policy with a double robust estimation. Counter to the expectations from the theoretical literature, our results show no impact of the agglomeration bonus on connectivity.
期刊介绍：
Ecological Economics is concerned with extending and integrating the understanding of the interfaces and interplay between "nature''s household" (ecosystems) and "humanity''s household" (the economy). Ecological economics is an interdisciplinary field defined by a set of concrete problems or challenges related to governing economic activity in a way that promotes human well-being, sustainability, and justice. The journal thus emphasizes critical work that draws on and integrates elements of ecological science, economics, and the analysis of values, behaviors, cultural practices, institutional structures, and societal dynamics. The journal is transdisciplinary in spirit and methodologically open, drawing on the insights offered by a variety of intellectual traditions, and appealing to a diverse readership.
Specific research areas covered include: valuation of natural resources, sustainable agriculture and development, ecologically integrated technology, integrated ecologic-economic modelling at scales from local to regional to global, implications of thermodynamics for economics and ecology, renewable resource management and conservation, critical assessments of the basic assumptions underlying current economic and ecological paradigms and the implications of alternative assumptions, economic and ecological consequences of genetically engineered organisms, and gene pool inventory and management, alternative principles for valuing natural wealth, integrating natural resources and environmental services into national income and wealth accounts, methods of implementing efficient environmental policies, case studies of economic-ecologic conflict or harmony, etc. New issues in this area are rapidly emerging and will find a ready forum in Ecological Economics.
