In this book, ‘sustainable’ is taken to mean that a practice can be continued indefinitely. As explained in Chaps. 2 and 3, this severely limits the extent to which geochemically scarce resources which have been formed in slow geological processes, such as fossil fuels and phosphate ore, can be converted into wastes. Sustainability also requires that renewable resources such as fertile soil, soil organic matter, groundwater and nutrients are maintained and retain their quality. Regarding cropping, this in turn leads to preferences for conservation tillage, much improved nutrient recycling and improved water efficiency. In forestry, this leads to a preference for long rotations and nutrient recycling. Sustainability also limits achievable biomass production. In Chap. 3, biomass production from currently abandoned, including fallow, agricultural land was estimated to have a sustainable yearly yield of approximately 23-28 EJ, about one order of magnitude below the yield suggested by de Vries et al. (2007).
