No Evidence of Trade-Off between Farm Efficiency and Resilience: Dependence of Resource-Use Efficiency on Land-Use Diversity
Fig 2
Dependence of resource-use efficiency on land-use diversity.
Estimated elasticities of land-use diversity and inputs in years 2000–2002 and 2004–2006 summarised based on the results of the adequate model for each year. The elasticities illustrate the dependence of resource-use efficiency on land-use diversity and inputs. The small negative elasticities of in 2004 and 2006 indicate that a 10% increase in land-use diversity, with an average input use, would result in approximately half a percentage decrease in total revenue. The positive elasticities indicate increase in total revenue by increasing inputs. UAA = utilised agricultural area.
