Agri-environment measures boost wildlife populations in long-term farm study
Agri-environment schemes can significantly increase local bird and butterfly populations without damaging food production, a long-term research project has found.
The Journal of Applied Ecology is a peer-reviewed scientific journal publishing research in all areas of environmental management. It began publication in 1964 and is the third oldest journal of the British Ecological Society (after the Journal of Ecology and the Journal of Animal Ecology). It is available both in print and online. The journal publishes the following types of papers:
