Abstract:
During the years 1996-2001, the line transect method has been employed to assess the species composition, dominance structure and relative abundance of birds resident in traditional farmlands, in the lowlands (10 transects with the total length of 43.9 km) and foothills (10 transects with the total length of transects 46.5 km) of Lesotho, southern Africa. This has been done to show the role of this farming in biodiversity conservation. A total of 76 resident species have been recorded in farmlands of Lesotho, 62 species in the lowlands and 53 species in the foothills. In the lowland farmlands

Abstract:
Since 1950 there have been considerable changes in the use of Swedish farmland which have led to a more large-scale, homogeneous and intensively managed agricultural landscape. These changes in Swedish farmland have affected the populations of many farmland birds. We give the densities of 29 selected farmland birds and 15 selected species of forest birds at eight large study sites (farmland landscapes of 14.5–21.5 km2 size; total of 140 km2) in southern Sweden and review the population changes of 48 species of farmland birds in southern Sweden.

Abstract:
AbstractAbstract This review covers research linking foraging habitat quality for birds to livestock management in lowland farmland. Based on this research we propose a framework for predicting the value of grazing systems to birds. This predictive framework is needed to guide the development of agri-environment measures to address farmland bird declines in pastoral areas. We show that the exacting requirements of declining granivorous birds pose the greatest challenges, while the needs of soil invertebrate feeding species are more easily met.

Abstract:
In order to provide more scientific guidance for wetland bird protection, this study addressed the dynamics of the bird community sorted by ecotypes, classifications and threat categories from 2015 to 2019, and non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis, generalized additive models and the Mantel test were used to examine the relationships between bird communities and habitat types. The results showed that: (1) The abundance of birds peaked in 2017 at 88,258 individuals and then declined. Moreover, there was an inverse trend between species richness and abundance of birds, meaning greater ab

Abstract:
Many studies have shown how intensification of farming is the main cause of loss biodiversity in these environments. During the last decades, agroecosystems in Europe have changed drastically, mainly due to mechanization of agriculture. In this work, species richness in bird communities was examined on a gradient of spatial heterogeneity of farmlands, in order to quantify its effects. Four categories of farmland spatial heterogeneity were defined, based on landscape and landuse parameters. The impact of features increasing the spatial heterogeneity was quantified comparing the similarity index

This thesis investigates nesting success, foraging behaviour, chick diet and growth of three ecologically contrasting species (skylark Alauda arvensis, yellowhammer Emberiza citrinella and song thrush Turdus philomelos) on farmland, in relation to microhabitat and the availability of invertebrates. Fieldwork was conducted on a lowland mixed arable farm in Leicestershire over the breeding seasons 2000 - 2002. Telemetry was used to monitor adult song thrushes and fledgling skylarks. Skylark nest density was highest in set-aside and lowest in crops, yellowhammer nest density was greatest in herba

Abstract:
Many species of farmland birds have shown huge declines in numbers and range since the 1970s due to agricultural intensification, and these declines have been worst amongst granivorous species. Recent studies have suggested that low abundance of invertebrate chick food may have been important in driving the declines of a number of granivorous species, however causation has still only been proved for the Grey Partridge, whose decline has been attributed to low chick survival due to the indirect effects of herbicides reducing invertebrate abundance. We investigated invertebrate declines and how

1. Many species of bird breeding in Britain have declined in recent decades. However, only in the farmland ecosystem are the majority of species, primarily seed-eating passerines, declining. Similar declines in these species are also occurring elsewhere in Europe and North America. This thesis aims to model the effects of habitat change on population size ofthese species through an understanding of their behaviour. 2. A wide range of factors, primarily relating to the intensification of agricultural management, have been implicated in these declines, and these are reviewed in detail. There is

Green lanes (two hedgerows separated by an unmetalled farmland track) have only just begun to have their potential for wildlife recognised within farmland, with a few studies revealing their substantial benefits for butterflies, bees and wild flowers. This study examines the value ofgreen lanes for farmland birds, comparing 20 green hi.ries with paired single hedgerows around Chester, UK over the years 2002-2004.

Abstract:
Grasshoppers and bush-crickets, collectively known as Orthoptera, are a critical invertebrate prey group for a number of declining farmland birds, including the cirl bunting (Emberiza cirlus). This study focuses on one species of Orthoptera, the meadow grasshopper (Chorthippus parallelus). The key objective was to provide an evidence base in order to identify the agri-environment scheme prescriptions and management practices of greatest value to C. parallelus. This information will help formulate management recommendations that will enhance C. parallelus abundance in agro-ecosystems, which in
