A framework for sustainable management of ecosystem services and disservices in perennial grassland agroecosystems

Abstract Increasing demand for agricultural products is driving grassland management intensification with subsequent impacts on ecosystem services and disservices. Key questions related to grassland production as well as environmental and social concerns must be addressed to ensure sustainability. W...
