Abstract
In this book, the authors have addressed ecological, socioeconomic, political, and practical factors pertaining to social-ecological restoration of paddy-dominated landscapes. It is evident that both social and ecosystem dimensions of ecological restoration play fundamental roles in restoration success. In the concluding chapter, we synthesize key lessons and offer some reflections on how the field of social-ecological restoration of farmland can be developed in the future.
