“…This means that the productivity-boosting effect is more significant than stability boosting effect in total LC areas. In more than 84% of total LC areas, LC has a positive effect on agricultural productivity or production stability (Table 7), which indicates that the LC activity may be beneficial to improve management, soil environment, and irrigation and drainage systems (Chartin et al, 2013;Harasimowicz, Janus, Bacior, & Gniadek, 2017;Thapa & Niroula, 2008), and so on.
