Highlights
While the United Nations’ System of Environmental and Economic Accounting (SEEA) links biophysical conditions with economic activities to define spatially explicit tradeoffs [4,8], individual countries with distinct land resources for agricultural livelihood still require land use indicators and threshold levels [3] to gauge their progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
Conflicts of Interest: The authors declare no conflict of interest
Summary
Since global agricultural trade reflects a ‘telecoupled’ land use network of countries wherein consumption in one country results in flows affecting land use in another country, measuring country-specific resource use along telecoupled socioeconomic and environmental supply chains can provide useful information for efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) [1,2,3]. While land use statistics record how land is economically exploited, assessing resource use tradeoffs with conflicting environmental and economic metrics [4] remains challenging.
