Agri-environmental hotspots are locations where
human activities are detrimental to the sustainability of an ecosystem
or the human activities depending on it.
Hotspots are a critical threshold on a continous scale ranging from
“natural environment” to “fire points”.
If no corrective action is taken, they may gradually evolve into
extremely tense socio-economic situations associated with a severe
degradation of the natural resources base and food security.
