Managing Biodiversity in Agricultural Landscapes : Conservation, Restoration and Rewilding Hardback
Edited by Emeritus Professor Nick (University of New England) Reid, Dr Rhiannon (University of New England) Smith
Part of the Burleigh Dodds Series in Agricultural Science series
Hardback
Description
Despite recent efforts, agricultural production continues to threaten biodiversity, disrupt delivery of key ecosystem services and contribute to climate change.
A more regenerative approach is required to enable farmers to restore and work with the ecosystem services that underpin sustainable farming and food production.
Biodiversity lies at the heart of this process. Managing biodiversity in agricultural landscapes: Conservation, restoration and rewilding considers the range of techniques that can be implemented to improve biodiversity in farmland.
It synthesises current research on the best ways to plan, implement and monitor ecological restoration projects as well the role of government agri-environment schemes.
The book also assesses what we know about the use and impact of individual conservation practices, such as field margins and hedgerows, and ways of successfully rewilding farmland.
