This research assessed how ecosystem services (ES) are taken into account in the decision-making process of stakeholders involved in the management of agroecosystems, in particular agroforestry systems, and how an Role-Playing Game (RPG) can serve as a tool to allow them to discuss the issues concerned. The study was conducted in two municipalities (Paragominas and Irituia) located in the Brazilian Amazon. The game was developed in 2018 using a co-construction process that mainly included farmers, students and researchers. Data was collected during two sessions of the game held in 2019, with participation by heterogeneous participants from different local institutions. Our results demonstrated that game sessions showed how the provision of ES, as well as other factors (e.g. values, availability of factors), is taken into account in planning the spatio-temporal configuration of the agroecosystem and associated agricultural practices. They also revealed some trade-offs involved in this decision-making process. We conclude that the RPG allowed stakeholders to synthesize and discuss different types of knowledge about this process. Bringing these elements to the discussion can contribute to an improved shared understanding of the challenges and possibilities of the ecological management of agroecosystems and can indicate solutions that are in line with local expectations.

这项研究评估了在参与农业生态系统（尤其是农林业系统）管理的利益相关者的决策过程中如何考虑生态系统服务（ES），以及角色扮演游戏（RPG）如何可以用作允许他们讨论有关的问题。这项研究是在位于巴西亚马逊的两个城市（帕拉戈米纳斯州和伊里图亚州）进行的。该游戏是在2018年使用共同构建过程开发的，该过程主要包括农民，学生和研究人员。数据是在2019年举行的两届游戏中收集的，来自不同地方机构的异类参与者参与了此次活动。我们的结果表明，游戏会议显示了ES的提供以及其他因素（例如，价值，因素的可利用性），在规划农业生态系统的时空配置和相关的农业实践时要考虑到这一点。他们还透露了此决策过程中的一些权衡。我们得出的结论是，RPG允许利益相关者综合和讨论有关此过程的不同类型的知识。将这些要素带入讨论可以有助于增进对农业生态系统生态管理的挑战和可能性的共识，并可以指出符合当地期望的解决方案。
