Résumé anglais
Future land use has to pursue two gods, to protect natural resourses and to ensure high agricultural productivity. To demonstrate that both demands can be met with an improved farming system type the FAM research alliance started its work in 1990 on a test site in Bavaria. One main task of the research project was to show that a soil-conserving land use can improve the economic and the ecologic situation. Eight years after implementing the soil-conserving strategies, consisting of a landscape redesign, local measures to prevent erosion and specific cropping practices it is possible now to present secured economical and ecological results. On the one hand, a dUSLE prediction and long-term measurements of soil loss provide evidence that soil loss can be reduced by two orders of magnitude. On the other hand the improvement of the economic returns are demonstrated according to the economic effects of landscape redesign and new cropping practices.
