From: Economic value of three grassland ecosystem services when managed at the regional and farm scale

Figure 3

Economic value of forage provision, habitat maintenance and carbon sequestration from increasing the share of extensively managed grassland on farm and regional scale. Squares represent the change in mean values compared to intensive land use resulting from the random spatial allocation (500 simulation runs) for two spatial policy target levels \({\text{q}}\) (region, farm). Error bars reflect minimum and maximum values reflecting price and willingness to pay variability in ecosystem service values from variation in price assumptions: (A) Economic value of forage production with forage price variability. (B) Economic value of habitat maintenance using willingness to pay estimates. (C) Economic value of carbon sequestration with carbon price variability.
