Risks to Biodiversity from Feed Cultivation:
Policy Pressures and Policy Options

In general, the policy pressures leading to increased risk to biodiversity through the expansion of feed cultivation are similar to those leading to increased risk of erosion through feed cultivation and the policy options to mitigate it are similar.

Threats to biodiversity can also be seen as a result of underinvestment in biodiversity, to which an appropriate response may, in certain circumstances, be compensation schemes .

In some circumstances it may be appropriate to establish or enhance protected areas.
