Abstract
⺠Indicators of soil ecosystem services were compared between conventional and organic arable farms. ⺠Farms were selected along a gradient of landscape heterogeneity (1 km radius). ⺠Supporting services were unaffected by farming method (conventional vs organic). ⺠Landscape had no effect on ecosystem services or soil microbial community. ⺠Conventional farms produced significantly greater yield than organic farms.
