Science - Environment & Ecology
German term or phrase: Nutzung
Deshalb müssen bei der Förderung von landschaftserhaltenden Maßnahmen, wie z.B. Kompensationsmechanismen, die unterschiedlichen **Nutzungen**, die zu einer erhöhten Kohlenstoffspeicherung führen, berücksichtigt werden und die verschiedenen Nutzergruppen (Kleinwaldbesitzer) an der Ausgestaltung der Mechanismen eingebunden werden.

This is from the same article. I don't think it can be translated as 'uses' here... can anyone think of a better option?

Thanks!
