文摘

Structural equation modelling identified relationships between stakeholder perceptions and measured ecosystem properties. Ecosystem service perceptions of farmers and conservationists differ significantly, due to different social contexts. Conservationists associated forage production with the actual land use, whereas farmers focused on the potential of ecosystem to produce forage. Farmers´ conservation perception was related to species richness, whereas conservationists associated conservation value with endangered meadow birds. Conservationists associated carbon sequestration value with below-ground peat formation, whereas farmers associated it with above-ground plant productivity.
