This form is used for the policy intervention part of a model component. The infobox from the introduction page will be displayed here, with exception of the references. The page starts with a description of the baseline plus figure, followed by a table with policy interventions. The page ends with examples of policy interventions, text plus figures. The 'policy interventions' themselves must be entered separately via the Form:PolicyInterventionForm.
Description. Baseline and Policy intervention examples:
<div class="page_standard"> ==Baseline developments== In a baseline scenario, agricultural land use may expand or decrease dependent on underlying scenario drivers and assumptions: in a SSP2 business-as-usual scenario substantial increases in agricultural land use take place leading to strong conversion of natural land. An SSP3 world shows even more conversion due to stronger population growth and very limited protection measures for nature and biodiversity. In the more sustainability oriented scenario SSP1 a major reduction takes place related to lower population, extensive protection of natural land and reduced consumption of animal products. The land-use allocation model is used to indicate where these changes may occur. Thus, it helps to assess the consequence of agricultural expansion and intensification on the environment, for example in relation to biodiversity, carbon storage, and water availability. {{DisplayPolicyInterventionFigureTemplate|{{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}}|1}}|Baseline figure}} ==Policy interventions== The policy interventions that can be analysed are related to either the agricultural economy ([[Agricultural economy]]), or they are reflected in the allocation rules used in the land-use allocation module (e.g. more protected areas, {{AbbrTemplate|REDD+}} schemes). In a study for the Global Land Outlook ([[van der Esch et al., 2021]]) the impacts of extensive protected area and the effect restoration (reverting agricultural land productivity loss) were compared. The results show that protection has especially strong effects on natural land, biodiversity and carbon storage. Crop yields also increase as a necessity to produce more on less land, however other studies show that this also negatively impacts food security ([[van Meijl et al., 2020b]]; [[Hasegawa et al., 2018]]). {{DisplayPolicyInterventionFigureTemplate|{{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}}|1}}|Policy intervention figure}} {{PIEffectOnComponentTemplate }} </div>
