Ecological footprints have been assessed widely from a resource production-consumption perspective but much less land use per capita availability-demand standpoint. The later view is key to policy because it sheds light on the need of changing or adapting uses get balance between those ecological (e.g., forests, riparian wetlands) and socioeconomic cropland) value. Thus, purpose this study was introduce LUEF – Land Use Footprint, defined as area specific occupation in region over population that pre-defined timeframe. index then applied Brazilian territory at macro resolution, 2015 2019 period. results identified deforestation, urban densification, cropland/pasture expansion forest restoration main drivers change studied period, well supporters concomitant gross domestic product. also revealed negative consequences changes for water security organic carbon stocks top layer soils (decline). Some regional metrics were proposed revert these consequences, namely control above 100 m2/hab keep National average level, cropland below 900 preserve stock regions' topsoils close (46.9 Mg/ha), reducing greenhouse gas emissions sequel. leveling LUEFs aforementioned values requires intensification ongoing initiatives relevant mitigate footprints. various examples, which included Forest Code, policies family agriculture, Payment Ecosystem Services programs, among others. Overall, recognized Brazil being right track pursue sustainable use.

Ecological compensation for cultivated land is a prominent means to coordinate the protection and utilization of ecosystems. This study assessed ecological land, considering both footprint value ecosystem services. We used model calculate carrying capacity combined with its services, focus on estimating standard, we analyzed temporal spatial distribution characteristics Northeast China. found that showed fluctuating growth trend in China from 2000 2020, increasing by 288.83 × 105 ha 131.37 ha, respectively.

Cultivated land ecological compensation (CLEC) is an important way to solve regional development imbalance and cultivated problems, the scientific quantification of value key CLEC. This study quantified total amount urgency CLEC in China’s main grain-producing region using cropland footprint (EF) ecosystem service (ESV) methods. Furthermore, this analyzed comprehensive zoning considering natural economic development. The results showed that spatial distribution EFs carrying capacity Henan Province are similar, presenting characteristics being high southeast low northwest; most counties districts a state surplus, resources sufficient support their own consumption needs. as whole ecologically compensated region, with CNY 1.39 billion, positive 94.94%.

ABSTRACT High‐quality development in agriculture is crucial for maintaining the harmonious balance between human society and natural environment, promoting this model one of key measures to alleviate land degradation issues. This study, grounded PRED theory (Population, Resources, Environment, Development theory) framework, establishes an evaluation system high‐quality agricultural by selecting 128 cities within Yangtze River Economic Belt as its samples. It quantifies carrying capacity, utilizes Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) assess production efficiency, applies Tapio decoupling analyze interplay these two factors. The results reveal that resource index has risen from 1.245 1.70, indicating escalating tension population food resources. Furthermore, efficiency seen a 16.56% increase, reflecting positive advancements across region. Spatial distribution analysis shows standard deviation ellipse concentrated mid lower reaches, centered Changde, Hunan, expanding westward, with broader coverage area perimeter. Additionally, relationship capacity primarily manifests three forms: strong negative decoupling, weak expansive decoupling. research offers significant insights effectively mitigating strain growth resource‐environmental capacity.
