Abstract:
Agricultural intensification has been associated with biodiversity declines, habitat fragmentation and loss in a number of organisms. Given the prevalence of this process, there is a need for studies clarifying the effects of changes in agricultural practices on local biological communities; for instance, the transformation of traditional rainfed agriculture into intensively irrigated agriculture. We focused on pond-breeding amphibians as model organisms to assess the ecological effects of agricultural intensification because they are sensitive to changes in habitat quality at both local and l

Abstract:
The rapid loss of natural habitats and resulting loss of biodiversity in insect taxa is a serious concern that will impact future food production. Insect biodiversity decline can be mainly attributed to the intensification of agriculture with the main drivers being habitat loss, fragmentation, and use of agro-chemicals. To mitigate the pressure of agriculture on biodiversity we urgently need to prioritize the restoration of land to natural habitats within agricultural landscapes. Changes in biodiversity in agricultural landscapes as agriculture intensifies were investigated in an Afromontane b

Abstract:
Agricultural landscape refers to the areas of land that are primarily used for agricultural activities and farming. Beetles (Order: Coleoptera) are one of the most diverse and ecologically important groups inhabiting agrarian landscapes. Coleoptera represents about 200 recognized families and 400,000 described species. Diverse feeding habits such as herbivory, predation, scavenging, decomposition, fungivory, and parasitism enable them to occupy a wide range of habitats and reduce competition. Consequently, contribute immensely to agricultural landscapes by providing numerous ecological service

The majority of the world’s plants rely on animal pollinators for reproduction, making pollination a key ecosystem service for the maintenance of natural and cultivated plant communities. Mutual interactions between plants and pollinators, also called “plant-pollinator networks”, are becoming increasingly vulnerable due to the intensification of anthropogenic land use and climate change. Thus, due to the rapid decline of semi-natural grasslands in the Northern Apennines (Italy), we aimed at understanding how the fragmentation of these habitats, the spatial distribution, and the amount of semi-

Habitat fragmentation and the intensification of agricultural landscapes are among the main drivers affecting parasitoid diversity. Although many empirical and theoretical studies have elucidated the effects of these processes on populations and communities of parasitoids, the majority of the research has been focused on specialized groups of hymenopterans. In this study the highly-diverse group of tachinid parasitoids (Diptera: Tachinidae) was considered as an alternative model system to test the effects of landscape fragmentation and agricultural intensification on the third trophic level.

Many bat species in Europe have undergone severe population declines during the last century and one of the driving causes is believed to be the loss of roosting and foraging habitat through agricultural expansion and intensification.

Agri-environment schemes (AES) have been introduced in many countries as an attempt to counteract the negative effects of intensive agriculture on biodiversity by providing financial incentives

Understanding how animals use their habitat is an important part of ecology because it links an individual’s life history with movement and resource exploitation. Animals have to move in some form or another to satisfy their energetic and reproductive needs, which is essential for fitness and survival. The patchy distribution of resources (i.e. food, shelter, mates) within heterogenous landscapes has a strong influence on animal movement. By analysing movement patterns of individuals, we can get a better understanding of the factors influencing the spatio-temporal use of patches. Habitat fragm

Abstract:
Agricultural intensification over the last 50 years has been a major cause of global biodiversity decline and continues to result in habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation. The agriculture sector must increase production to feed a rapidly growing human population but, to be sustainable, must also maintain the ecosystem services provided by the biodiversity on which it relies. Just how to achieve this is the current focus of much scientific debate. What is clear, is that the world’s current estate of protected areas is no longer sufficient to conserve healthy wildlife populations. Ecologic

Ecomodernists therefore feel reduction of the impact of meat production is paramount for a sustainable future.
