Landscape elements, field evaluation and perception of stakeholders of the Appellation of Origin "Montilla-Moriles"
Trabajo presentado en la EGU General Assembly 2019, celebrada en Viena del 3 al 8 de mayo de 2019. ; There are many studies assessing the regulating ecosystem services of cover crops in woody crops (e.g. soilfertility or erosion control) but rarely the landscape and their associated cultural ecosystem services have beenevaluated, especially in relatively small agricultural areas. The region is in southern Spain and encompass 17municipalities with a surface of 5052 ha of vines assigned to the Appellation.Within the project VineDivers, several studies were carried out in the region at different spatial scales(from landscape to vineyard): i) elaboration of an inventory of the landscape elements of one representativemunicipality (Aguilar de la Frontera) [1], ii) digitization and analysis of landscape buffers corresponding to 750m circles radius around the centroid of 16 commercial vineyards [2], and iii) field measurements of vegetationinter-rows at the vineyards under a range of soil management intensities [3]. Furthermore, iv) stakeholders weresurveyed to study if landscape complexity and soil management practices provide cultural ecosystem services [4,5].This communication presents the results obtained from these studies. Numerous possible areas of actionhave been identified in which the implementation of diversification measures of the landscape elements wouldbe essential for controlling erosion and preserving environmental sustainability. Olive orchards are the dominantlandscape elements around the studied vineyards. Our results highlighted the effect of landscape complexity andsoil management intensity on cultural ecosystem services provision. In general terms, the interrow managementof the vineyards and vegetation typology determines the appreciation of the landscape by the respondents, beingaesthetically better valued the cover crop vineyards.
