The dataset represents a pressure trend indicator as measure of intensification of agroecosystems. The trend indicator is the share of grassland area affected by internal Land Cover flows between CORINE 2006 and 2012, presented at NUTS3 level. Those changes were used to identify the internal flows related to more intense use, mainly linked to the increase in resource and machinery use. The internal flows related to intensification were defined based on an expert consultation done in the context of the ETC/ULS actions.

The dataset represents a pressure trend indicator as measure of intensification of agroecosystems. The trend indicator is the share of cropland area affected by internal Land Cover flows between CORINE 2006 and 2012, presented at NUTS3 level. Those changes were used to identify the internal flows related to more intense use, mainly linked to the increase in resource and machinery use. The internal flows related to intensification were defined based on an expert consultation done in the context of the ETC/ULS actions.

The dataset represents a measure of intensification trend of agroecosystems. Nutrient input is a specific measure related to the intensification processes in the management of grassland ecosystems. The average change rate of nutrient input between 2005 and 2010 is used to show these tendencies in the NUTS regions (NUTS3 and NUTS2 for Germany). The data comes from the EEA draft nutrient accounts, developed by EEA and ETC/ULS, and is based on spatial reference data on crop and livestock distribution, yield and livestock statistics, and official conversion factors.

The dataset shows the percentage of grasslands under high pressure from management practices in 2010. The area percentage is calculated in relation to the total grassland area within NUTS3 regions (NUTS2 for Germany). The management pressure on grassland was calculated by combining information of nitrogen input from the Farm Structure Survey (FSS), the Corine Land Use/Land Cover dataset and other environmental characteristics such as topographic conditions, soil and climate conditions (etc). This dataset is part of the condition/pressures assessments done for agroecosystems under ETC/SIA actions for MAES (Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystem Services).
