Focusing on ecological and biological principles, the book explores their application in enhancing the production of food, wood, and biofuels within agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and aquaculture. It details how increased production impacts ecosystem structures, energy, and nutrient flows, while also addressing the effects on ecosystem services. The authors discuss contemporary methods aimed at promoting sustainability in these sectors, ensuring the balance between production and the provision of vital non-productive ecosystem services.
