THE SIMPLIFICATION OF AGRICULTURAL SYSTEMS HAS HISTORICALLY LED TO INCREASES IN PRODUCTIVITY.HOWEVER, THE REMOVAL OF PLANT BIODIVERSITY ON FARMS MAY DECREASE THE HEALTH OF OUR FARMING SYSTEMS.IN RESPONSE, SOME FARMERS ARE INCREASING ON-FARM BIODIVERSITY THROUGH 'FARMSCAPING'(I.E., PLANTING DIVERSE NON-CROP PLANT MIXTURES ON MARGINAL LANDS). HOWEVER, THE IMPACTS OF THISMANAGEMENT PRACTICE ARE NOT WELL UNDERSTOOD FOR SOME KEY REASONS. FIRSTLY, RESEARCHERS TEND TOEXAMINE IMPACTS THROUGH A NARROW RESEARCH LENS RATHER THAN WITHIN THE INTERDISCIPLINARY CONTEXT OFECOSYSTEM SERVICES. SECONDLY, THE BENEFITS OF FARMSCAPING CAN DEPEND ON PLANT BIODIVERSITY IN THESURROUNDING LANDSCAPE. IN THIS RESEARCH, THE IMPACTS OF FARMSCAPING ON FARM HEALTH AND HOWSURROUNDING LANDSCAPES INFLUENCES THOSE IMPACTS WILL BE EXAMINED. SPECIFICALLY, A WIDE RANGE OF"FARM HEALTH" METRICS INCLUDING REGULATING SERVICES (POLLINATION AND PEST MANAGEMENT), PROVISIONINGSERVICES (CROP YIELD AND WILD GAME POPULATIONS), AND CULTURAL SERVICES (AESTHETIC VALUE AND AGRIECOTOURISM)WILL BE MEASURED.THE OVERALL GOAL IS TO ESTABLISH A RESEARCH-BASED, INTERDISCIPLINARY ASSESSMENT OF FARMSCAPING'SIMPACTS ON ECOSYSTEM SERVICES AND TO DEVELOP GUIDELINES FOR MAXIMIZING THOSE BENEFITS IN A RANGEOF DIFFERENT LANDSCAPES. TO DO THIS, WORK WILL BE DONE ON-FARM WITH 20 DIFFERENT VEGETABLEPRODUCERS ON THE EASTERN SHORE OF VIRGINIA TO MEASURE REGULATING AND PROVISIONING ECOSYSTEMSERVICES THAT RESULT FROM FARMSCAPING AND SURROUNDING LANDSCAPES. TOURISTS WILL ALSO BE SURVEYED TOASSESS FARMSCAPING'S CONTRIBUTIONS TO CULTURAL ECOSYSTEM SERVICES. FINALLY, STATISTICAL MODELS WILL BECREATED FROM FIELD DATA TO PREDICT LEVELS OF ECOSYSTEM SERVICES THAT FARMERS COULD EXPECT FROMIMPLEMENTING FARMSCAPING.
