This guide presents a step-by-step approach in using a participatory mapping method with community members to identify and map ecosystem services and changes in their supply across multiuse agricultural landscapes. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs), government agencies and researchers can use this approach to learn from communities about how they use and access natural resources.

The total number of livestock worldwide
is estimated at 17 billion. Around two thirds
- 5 billion hectares - of the world’s
total agricultural area is used to feed these
animals, including 3.4 billion hectares of
grazing land. Much of this land has been
severely degraded by overgrazing and
unsustainable production.

Wetlands and peatlands are key
ecosystems containing approximately
20% of global soil organic carbon stocks.
Peat swamp forests have sequestered
carbon for millennia, storing a globally
significant reservoir below ground.

Recent studies show that carbon
sequestered by trees on agricultural
land is not well accounted for. If it was,
researchers argue in a new study: “Global
Tree Cover and Biomass Carbon on
Agricultural Land: The contribution
of agroforestry to global and national
carbon budgets,” total carbon estimates
from agricultural land could be more
than four times higher.
