The effective functioning of ecosystems and natural capital is the basis for a steady flow of ecosystem services from nature to society. However, their structure and function are greatly affected by management practices, land use and climate change. Knowing the structural components of ecosystems, as well as their interdependence, is therefore essential for a better understanding of the functions and services that are obtained from ecosystems. This knowledge will enable the adoption of management models and practices aimed at tackling habitat degradation, biodiversity loss and genetic erosion; while identifying strategies and measures to protect, restore and promote the sustainable use of endogenous genetic resources, contributing to the resilience of the territory and responding to the challenges of 2030 and the territorial cohesion program. In this sense, the overall objective of this project is to identify and characterize the fundamental support and regulation services for cherry and cherry tree production systems in identified landscape windows in the Centro Region, thus including tasks directed towards the following objectives:
