摘要：Developing successful policies for sustainable land use requires understanding the perspectivesof different actors. This study explored how residents – an often under-represented and unorganized group – vary in their valuation of ecosystem services (ES) and perception of multifunctionality in a peri-urban setting. We conducted 127 interviews in the Kromme Rijn region ofthe Netherlands guided by an interactive, visual canvas tool (STREAMLINE). We addressed fourresearch questions: (1) Is there variation among residents regarding preferences for ES? (2) Whichcompeting interests do residents see in this landscape? (3) Where are hotspots of perceivedmultifunctionality? and (4) Can the level of perceived multifunctionality be explained by itslocation on the rural–urban gradient? Our findings demonstrate that while the majority of ESare important to residents of a peri-urban landscape, there is variation in relative preferencetowards a subset of ES (mainly provisioning services). A typology of preferences distinguishesthree groups: (A)‘I want it all’ – all ES (very) important; (B)‘I want most of it’ – majority of ESimportant; and (C)‘I want some’ – several ES not important at all. The majority of competinginterests identified by respondents were between biodiversity and either a provisioning orcultural service. Universal hotspots of perceived multi-functionality overlapped with the areaaround residential areas, whereas natural (grassland) areas and water were considered multifunctional by only a small share of respondents. These perceptions and preferences do notnecessarily align with current policy and management efforts, it is advised that residents’perceptions and values are better accounted for in landscape governance.
