Field size as a determinant of common vole population density
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Population densities of the common vole, an agricultural pest, increase nonlinearly with forage field size, especially in fields below 20 ha. Reducing the field size may help limit crop damage in farmland. Abstract BACKGROUND Environmental heterogeneity in agricultural landscapes is a key driver of biodiversity and ecological processes, yet its role in
