Types of landscapes and landowners included in ES and BD projects. Projects that initiate sustainable agriculture introduce sustainable techniques (such as contour farming, no till, organic crops). Projects that maintain private landownership involve no private land purchasing within the project area. Land starts as private and remains private. Significantly more ES projects target agricultural landscapes (75% compared with 46% of BD projects) initially. More ES projects also work to maintain human use by initiating sustainable agriculture (44%) and maintaining private landownership (50%) as opposed to BD projects (<20% initiate sustainable agriculture and only 23% maintain private ownership). *, significant P < 0.05.
