Here we compare the influence of economic incentives and social norms on urban landowners’ adoption of native gardens. First, we model the relationship between social norms and landowners’ actual land use decisions. We estimate adoption intention under different support programs with a choice experiment, also considering social norms. We find that social norms can play a significant role in the adoption of native gardens, comparable to relatively expensive financial incentives. Therefore, social norms may enhance the performance of incentives to increase rates of land conservation.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
