Linking crop yields with functional biodiversity Milan Plecas presents our work on developing bespoke #wildflower margins for #pollination & pest regulation in #OSR Different pollinators prefer different plant species - do we need regionally suited mixtures? Gaetan Seimandi-Corda José M. Blanco

Agronomic practices for in-crop generation of ecosystem services Gaetan Seimandi-Corda presents our work on #PlantDiversification via companion planting to protect #OSR from #CSFB - it works... but is variable & we need to understand mechanisms Rothamsted Research EcoStack @Julian_Winkler

#EIPabstract #Fieldtrials in the UK and Germany show that #OSR companion #croppingsystem can protect the crop from cabbage stem flea #beetle adult attacks. They show for the first time that not only #legumes but also #cereals can have a strong protective effect on the crop

Delighted to welcome BASE-UK farmers to Rothamsted Research for a workshop to discuss EcoStack project work to increase #pollination, #PestRegulation & #production using ecological approaches #regenerativeagriculture

Next up is our session by Kelly Jowett Rothamsted Research with #Megan on the importance of #carabids as predators and weed seed eaters. Plus an identification course for farmers can id what's on their own farms! BASE-UK EcoStack

🏆Haldane Prize 2022🏆 🐞In this new post, Bellec Laura discusses how young buds are more profitable than older ones for pollen beetles and her journey to becoming an ecologist🏵️ UMR Igepp 📙buff.ly/43S84YV

Lovely day out for Rothamsted Research agro-ecology group FarmED really inspiring work demonstrating and communicating #regenag #regenerative practices 🌾🌿⚘️🌱🍎🥬 and fantastic menu too 😋

Very happy to find some nice big dung beetle larvae today 🤩🪲 these little friends turn dung into soil nutrients, reduce breeding grounds for parasites and pest flies, reduce carbon emissions, and provide food for farm wildlife 🥰 Rothamsted Research Dung Beetles for Farmers #farming #beetle

Royal Entomological Society Last talk of the day from Gaetan Seimandi-Corda! Harvested area of OSR has dropped in UK and flea beetles reduce yields further - can companion crops help? Companion cropping reduces flea beetle abundance and feeding damage but extent depends on companion crop and density effects!#SusAg23

Members heard how Machine Learning is used to predict changes in butterfly and moth distribution in the UK based on historical data records. They also heard how parasitoid wasps can combat crop pests and help protect oil seed rape

Who eat pollen beetle and pod-midge larvae in #OSR? Camera traps can give you an answer! 🧐 Check out our new paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.bioc… AND our review on the use of cameras to identify predators of insects in #AFEntomology 🪲🎥doi.org/10.1111/afe.12…

Gaetan Seimandi-Corda nicely showed that cover crops reduce #pesticides and #nitrate losses in different cropping systems 🌱 SFE2_2024
