It’s been suggested that global wildlife populations have decreased by 60% in the last 40 years, with around 30,000 species in immediate danger of extinction and up to one million species at risk of future extinction, primarily as a result of habitat loss from agricultural expansion. The magnitude of this crisis has led to the development of biodiversity conservation schemes designed to reverse biodiversity decline. However the success of these schemes is critically reliant on effective biodiversity monitoring.Improving biodiversity monitoring of agricultural landscapes provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of farmland biodiversity monitoring schemes. It reviews the strengths and weaknesses of key national monitoring programmes, as well as regional initiatives developed by the EU and FAO. The book also assesses developments in techniques used to collect and analyse data for more effective biodiversity monitoring.
