Given the large areas of land currently under agricultural production, our findings suggest the potential role of organic farming in reducing the continued loss of biodiversity in both terrestrial and aquatic agricultural ecosystems.…”

1. Organic farming has potential for the conservation of global biodiversity and associated ecosystem services. Despite this, knowledge of the effects of organic farming systems on farmland biodiversity is limited in Asia, the worldwide leader in rice production.2. We conducted the first national-scale study to investigate the effects of three different rice farming systems (conventional, low-input and organic) and specific management practices (e.g. herbicide and insecticide applications, crop rotation and levee-vegetation management) on species richness and abundance of multiple taxonomic groups (plants, invertebrates, Pelophylax and Hyla japonica frogs, cobitid loaches and birds) in Japan during 2013-2015.3. Organic fields supported the highest richness and abundance of several taxonomic groups (native/Red List plants, Tetragnatha spiders, Sympetrum dragonflies and Pelophylax frogs), followed by low-input and conventional fields. We also found taxon-specific responses to specific management practices. For instance, plant richness and Tetragnatha and Sympetrum abundance increased with reduced herbicide and/or insecticide applications. Sympetrum and cobitid loach abundance increased in the absence of crop rotation, whereas H. japonica abundance increased with crop rotation. Pelophylax abundance increased with an increased height of levee vegetation.4. At spatial scales larger than single fields, waterbird richness and abundance were positively correlated with the proportion of organic rice fields, presumably due to increased prey abundance. Meanwhile, landbird richness and abundance were positively associated with annual precipitation and annual mean temperature, suggesting that such climate increases food availability. Synthesis and applications.We highlight the positive effects of organic and low-input farming for biodiversity relative to conventional farming in rice paddies. We also provide the scientific basis of the current agri-environmental schemes in Japan, subsidising organic and low-input farming for biodiversity.

“…For example, Katayama, Osada, et al (2019) found that environmentally friendly farming of paddy land provides high levels of richness and abundance of several species (e.g., dragonflies, frogs, and spiders). Moreover, Katayama, Bouam, Koshida, and Baba (2019) conducted a meta‐analysis that showed that environmentally friendly farming significantly increased biodiversity in farmland. Environmentally friendly farming can, however, be more costly and have a lower yield than farming that uses a scheme of intensive agricultural land management (Crowder & Reganold, 2015; Katayama, Baba, Kusumoto, & Tanaka, 2015).…”

Integrating the benefits associated with biodiversity into market mechanisms can play an important role in conservation practice. Food labeling is a widely used measure that highlights biodiversity conservation benefits to the market.However, few studies have explored the effects of labels on staple agricultural products that are associated with agro-ecosystem conservation. We evaluated the biodiversity price premium of wildlife-friendly rice by analyzing data from retail stores in Japan. The results showed a significant positive impact of biodiversity-relevant labels on rice prices. Specifically, rice with this type of labeling had about 20% price premium as compared with rice that did not. The results also showed that outcome-based certifications have the potential to work well in the market. The findings highlight the role of conservation marketing in agro-ecosystem conservation and its potential to help balance biodiversity conservation and food security.

“…In turn, we hypothesize that cultural and ubiquitous species in natural areas will be strongly influenced by characteristics of the agricultural area. Specifically, we expect higher diversity of these groups in natural areas adjacent to orchards with higher habitat quality 34 . We also expect cultural species diversity to show a decline with distance from the crop edge in the form of spillover attrition 35 .…”

To ensure integrity of protected areas we need to understand how species respond to anthropogenic borders. We investigate, from a metacommunity perspective, the direct and indirect mechanisms by which transformed areas affect distribution patterns of ground-living arthropod assemblages inhabiting an extensive protected area adjacent to fruit orchards in an important biosphere reserve. Arthropods and environmental variables were sampled along transects perpendicular to natural-orchard edges. Influence of distance from orchard boundary, degree of impermeability of the boundary, orchard habitat quality (local scale land-use intensity), and edge-induced changes in local environmental variables on arthropod species richness and composition in non-crop habitats were assessed. Arthropod groups were assessed in terms of habitat fidelity: species associated with natural habitat (stenotopic species), those within crop habitat (cultural species), and those showing no preference for either habitat (ubiquitous species). Spillover resulted in higher cultural species richness near edges, but not higher overall species richness. Environmental filtering was important for stenotopic species composition, which was influenced by edge-induced changes in environmental variables. Ubiquitous species composition was determined by orchard impermeability. Increased orchard habitat quality was associated with higher cultural and ubiquitous species richness. The effects of orchards on assemblages in natural habitats can be variable, but predictable when using species habitat specificity in conjunction with a metacommunity framework. High intensity orchards may act as sink habitats, especially for species that readily disperse between crop and natural habitats. Here we recommend that local buffer strips are > 85 m wide, which will reduce the influence of cultural species spillover on sensitive natural ecosystems.
