Sugar provisioning increases parasitoid numbers in agroecosystems but may not reduce pest densities: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our findings demonstrate that providing sugar sources reliably supports parasitoid populations and parasitism rate but does not systematically translate into improved pest suppression or yield gains. These results suggest that, for economic and practical reasons, sugar inputs at the edge of cultivated fields should be favoured.

Early sowing of multiple species supports the recovery potential of restored grasslands

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Recovery of recently restored grasslands after ploughing depends on vegetation age and restoration type. Early sowing of target forbs and at least 4 years of vegetation development enhance recovery, while moderate disturbance may be needed to reduce grass dominance.
