Cropland Ecosystem Service Values: Nutrient Cycling
Land Use: Cropland
Ecosystem Service: Nutrient Cycling
Regional Value Estimate: $0 per acre per year
Confidence Level (in estimated value): n/a
How was value determined:
- Value was not determined for cropland nutrient cycling because the value for this ecosystem service was presumed to be highly variable based on type of crop, farming practices, and soil quality. This would result in a value estimate that is unreliable.
- Additionally, value could not be determined for cropland nutrient cycling because there was insufficient information from other studies that could be transferred to West Michigan for this ecosystem service and/or land use.
- Part of the value of nutrient cycling is captured in food production for this land use.
Value estimate limitations: n/a
