Ortolan buntings (Emberiza hortulana) consistently select breeding territories with structurally diverse crops on well‐drained soils

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study investigated consistency in habitat selection over a 12‐year period in a breeding population of Ortolan Bunting in Uelzen, Lower Saxony (Germany). We demonstrate strong interannual variation in crop type preferences and avoidance and breeding territories were strongly associated with well‐drained soils with low soil fertility.

Drip irrigation in California

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1977
Drip irrigation first appeared in California agriculture in 1969 or 1970. Enthusiasm rose rapidly because of the attractive newness of the method and because of high hopes for substantial water saving. With water in California both costly and scarce, the prospect seemed inviting.

Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Embedded Pesticide Use: Exploring the Pesticide‐Land Nexus

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies. Meanwhile, abiding interest in pesticides has been reanimated in the face of changes in production, regulation and knowledge of toxicity.
