Effects of environmental and political framework on alpine farming and its development in the Entlebuch UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Switzerland

摘要：

Large areas of the Entlebuch UNESCO Biosphere Reserve ( UBE) are dominated by a patchwork of different habitats.The most important one is grassland under different site conditions.It is interspersed with raised bogs,peat bogs, forests,abandoned land,unproductive land and all intermediate habitats.Most grassland is used as alpine pastures or designed as nature or landscape conservation area.The new Swiss Agriculture Policy 2011 ( Agrarpolitik 2011,2007) supports grazing activities in alpine regions with contributions under adverse production conditions,hillside contributions and by allocating payments for cattle summering.The questions are : What is the share of each land‐use type in an average alpine farm ?How do these subsidies influence the land‐use types and alpine farming in general ?
