Around 2,200 years ago, the artist Hephaistion left his signature on a mosaic floor in the form of a piece of parchment held down with small drops of wax. This perfect imitation of a sheet of parchment, with one corner curled up, was discovered in one of the palaces at Pergamon.

Two decades ago, researchers started an experiment that would challenge the prevailing scientific understanding of plant communities. While modern agriculture treats diversity as inefficient, the Jena Experiment proved the opposite: complexity is the key to resilience.

The real breakthrough came from watching these communities evolve. Species that initially competed fiercely for resources began developing sophisticated sharing networks. The plants weren't just coexisting—they were actively cooperating in ways not previously observed.

This wasn't random. High-diversity plots consistently outperformed monocultures across every metric. After 15 years, they showed 84% less variation in biomass production and recovered from drought twice as fast. Nature was proving that diversity equals stability.

The findings shatter a core assumption of modern agriculture – that we can predict plant performance based on individual traits. The most productive combinations weren't those that looked good on paper, they were the ones that had time to adapt to each other.

If you doubt the scientific community, that's on you and your worldview, not scientists Science is a method to explain the world. Scientists are just people. Not perfect, but doing our best to learn new knowledge. If you don't trust our experience, that's your trust issues, baby

This statement is ridiculous. Every scientific field is built around testing hypotheses (interpretive leaps) that attempt to explain fragmentary data. We keep hypotheses that effectively match that fragmentary dataset and modify them when they do not Archaeology is no different

"I was a strong Brexit supporter. I made that decision to try to save our industry. We believed fishing in the UK was going to be stronger. It's what we were promised. Instead it's smaller. It's costing us £60,000pa extra. #Brexit has done me no favours." bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
