| Abstract: | A model is used for the dynamic and spacially explicit exploration of near future agricultural land-use changes. In a case study for Equador, different plausible scenarios are formulated, taking into account possible developments in national food demand until the year 2010. The protection of nature parks and restrictions due to land degradation are evaluated with respect to their possible spacial impacts on the land-use change dynamics within the country. |
