稻田是季风亚洲典型的生态系统。稻田的主要目的是粮食生产(即提供生态系统服务),但它也有其他几种生态系统服务。因此,我们可以将稻田视为已经广泛分布的绿色基础设施(GI)的组成部分。保持和提高水田的地理标志价值,除提供服务外,还应努力保持和提高其他生态系统服务。然而,水田作为地理标志而降低价值的问题依然存在,这与近年来水田的整合和废弃有关。在本文中,我们重点关注除供给服务之外的稻田两种生态系统服务:(1)栖息地服务和(2)调节服务。这两项服务都是日本稻田评价相对较高的生态系统服务。我们讨论了整合和废弃对这些生态系统服务的影响以及相应的对策。在此基础上,我们还讨论了应用和扩展稻田作为地理标志的概念所面临的挑战。
The paddy field is a typical ecosystem in monsoon Asia. The main purpose of a paddy field is food production (ie, a provisioning ecosystem service), but it also has several other ecosystem services. Therefore, we can consider paddy fields as components of green infrastructure (GI) that are already widely distributed. To maintain and improve the value of paddy fields as GI, we should strive to maintain and improve other ecosystem services besides provisioning services. However, issues that reduce the value of paddy fields as GI remain, and these are related to the consolidation and abandonment of paddy fields in recent years. In this paper, we focus on two ecosystem services of paddy fields, other than the provisioning service:(1) the habitat service and (2) the regulating service. Both these services are relatively well-evaluated ecosystem services of paddy fields in Japan. We discuss the effects of both consolidation and abandonment on these ecosystem services as well as their corresponding countermeasures. Based on this, we also discuss the challenges in applying and expanding the idea of paddy fields as GI.
