Published in 2018 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4234

Abstract: Abstract Floral foraging resources are valuable for pollinator conservation on farmland, and their provision is encouraged by agri‐environment schemes in many countries. Across Europe, wildflower seed mixtures are widely sown on farmland to encourage pollinators,… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Biodiversity and Conservation"

DOI: 10.1007/s10531-018-1531-0

Abstract: The diversity and abundance of insect pollinators are declining. This decline reduces the potential ecosystem services of pollination for wild and cultivated plants. Specific agri-environment schemes (AES) are subsidised to support and conserve biodiversity in… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Biological Conservation"

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2018.12.022

Abstract: Abstract The intensification of agricultural practices that Western nations have experienced after World War II has led to an alarming decline in farmland biodiversity. With the aim of stopping and even reversing this decline, agri-environment… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of Cleaner Production"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jclepro.2021.127593

Abstract: Abstract Soil erosion and sediment losses are likely to increase with projected climate change and increasing storm intensity, causing detrimental impacts to agriculture and the degradation of aquatic ecosystems. Agri-environment initiatives aim to mitigate these… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Land Use Policy"

DOI: 10.1016/j.landusepol.2021.105441

Abstract: Abstract Agri-environment schemes were introduced in the UK in the 1980s as a response to the widespread environmental damage caused by post-war farming practices. Given such schemes are approaching forty years old, the academic literature… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Applied Ecology"

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2664.13309

Abstract: 1. The decline of farmland birds across Europe is a well-documented case of biodiversity loss, and despite land stewardship supported by funding from agri-environment schemes (AES), the negative trends have not yet been reversed. read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Applied Ecology"

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2664.13405

Abstract: 1.Grasslands occur around the globe and, in temperate regions, their natural management by fire, drought and wild herbivores has largely been replaced by grazing with domestic livestock. Successful management for agriculture is not always suitable… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Sustainability"

DOI: 10.3390/su13147820

Abstract: Most monitoring and evaluation programmes for agri-environment schemes focus on understanding the environmental outcomes and the cost-effectiveness of these schemes. Evaluation of the social dimensions of agri-environment schemes, particularly the socio-cultural factors that might influence… read more here.
