Reconnecting crop and livestock production beyond the farm gate by exchanging raw materials (e.g., feed, manure) between farms is seen as a promising solution for improving the environmental performance of farms, since it should reduce the use of imported nitrogen (N) inputs. However, such a circular economy does not necessarily lead to a positive outcome, since cooperating farms might simultaneously intensify their production, which could cancel out the benefits of reconnecting crops and livestock: this is known as a rebound effect.

农业反弹效应的证据：农场大门外的作物与牲畜的重新连接并不总是导致更可持续的氮管理


通过在农场之间交换原材料（例如饲料、粪便）来重新连接农场大门外的作物和畜牧生产，被视为改善农场环境绩效的有前途的解决方案，因为它应该减少进口氮 （N） 投入的使用。然而，这样的循环经济不一定会带来积极的结果，因为合作的农场可能会同时集约化生产，这可能会抵消重新连接农作物和牲畜的好处：这被称为反弹效应。
