Sustainable agricultural landscapes seek to improve environmental, societal and economic outcomes locally and internationally. They depend on functionally biodiverse agricultural systems, i.e., systems that include diversity in plants and/or crops and maintain productive function. These systems are variably defined and are not adequately or consistently represented or ensured across agricultural landscapes. The variability results in inconsistent productive function, and minimally biodiverse agricultural systems and landscapes that degrade the environment, preventing consistent increases in functional biodiverse systems across farming landscapes and impeding long-term societal and economic benefit. The article answers the question: how can the Ecological Sensitivity within Human Realities (ESHR) concept improve consistent and more thorough increases in functional biodiversity outcomes from human natural environment interactions as a conceptual explanation. The ESHR concept for functional biodiversity is introduced and explained using an integrated narrative literature review. Motivation to develop and present the ESHR is an observed and identified need to emphasize the human influence on functional biodiversity outcomes and encourage sensitivity of human interactions with the natural environment through more detailed considerations that might better ensure consistent outcomes. Existing and commonly used concepts that seek to improve biodiversity in agricultural systems are compared to the ESHR to demonstrate novelty. New understandings of ecological and human conditions in coffee farming landscapes are not introduced, instead, the concept substantiates (1) functionally biodiverse agricultural systems rely on consistently functional ecological interactions and processes for all system and landscape complexities by structure, heterogeneity, and interactions, between and across systems; (2) human interactions are influenced by variability in the human condition across individuals and societal groups, referred to as human realities. When compared to the selection of existing concepts of similar intentions it demonstrates to combine strengths of different concepts with improved opportunity for contextual adaptations. Comparatively consistent, comprehensive considerations and functional biodiversity outcomes are encouraged and expected with the use of the ESHR. Recommendations for future use and research are provided.

人类现实概念中的生态敏感性可改善农业系统和景观中的功能性生物多样性成果

可持续农业景观旨在改善当地和国际的环境、社会和经济成果。它们依赖于功能生物多样性的农业系统,即包括植物和/或作物多样性并保持生产功能的系统。这些系统的定义各不相同,并且没有在农业景观中得到充分或一致的代表或确保。这种可变性导致生产功能不一致,以及使环境退化的最低限度的生物多样性农业系统和景观,阻止了农业景观中功能性生物多样性系统的持续增加,并阻碍了长期的社会和经济利益。文章回答了这个问题:作为概念解释,人类现实中的生态敏感性 (ESHR) 概念如何改善人类自然环境相互作用中功能生物多样性结果的一致和更彻底的增加。使用综合叙述性文献综述介绍和解释了功能性生物多样性的 ESHR 概念。制定和提出 ESHR 的动机是一种观察和确定的需要,即强调人类对功能性生物多样性结果的影响,并通过更详细的考虑来鼓励人类与自然环境互动的敏感性,从而更好地确保一致的结果。将寻求改善农业系统生物多样性的现有和常用概念与 ESHR 进行比较以证明其新颖性。没有介绍对咖啡种植景观中生态和人类条件的新理解,相反,该概念证实了 (1) 功能生物多样性农业系统依赖于所有系统和景观复杂性的一致功能生态相互作用和过程,通过结构、异质性和相互作用,和跨系统;(2) 人与人之间的互动受到个人和社会群体之间的人类状况可变性的影响,称为人类现实。与具有相似意图的现有概念的选择相比,它表明将不同概念的优势与改善的情境适应机会相结合。使用 ESHR 鼓励并期待相对一致的综合考虑和功能性生物多样性成果。
