Geographic, Taxonomic and Metric Gaps in Biodiversity Research Limit Evidence‐Based Conservation in Agricultural Landscapes: An Umbrella Review

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2025.
We systematically reviewed 200 meta‐analyses (gathering over 9000 primary studies) on the effects of agriculture on biodiversity in croplands. Our systematic map of secondary research highlights significant geographical and taxonomic gaps, uncovering an overfocus on simple biodiversity metrics and on individual agricultural practices rather than ...
