Abstract: | In this study, a spatially explicit bioeconomic analysis (hereafter as: anls.) of species conservation (here as: spes-cons.) in agricultural areas is provided. Economic anls. spes-cons. in fragmented habitat needs dealing with metapopulation (as: m-pop./m-pops.) theory with and its implications. It is shown that multiple equilibria and local optima in m-pops. may lead to non-convexities in the production possibilities set of agricultural profits and spes-cons. |
