The main focus was on the location of boundary points, length of parcel sides, the area of parcel and agricultural land, and the descriptive attributes of farmland. The data from both registers differed mainly in the values of attribute C denoting the difference between the boundary turning ...
With about 160 million hectares of farmland in Europe alone and more than four billion globally, the potential is enormous.3 That said, although we are expanding the program across Europe and beyond, credits alone won’t be a sufficient incentive for farmers. That’s why we’re also very ...
On the whole, however, the construction of the Erie Canal (and most other major public works projects of the era) appears to have been well conceived and executed; it not only paid off more than its costs through tolls, but also generated substantial welfare improvements for the residents of...
UK (Reynolds et al.2016). This is based on the idea that feathers may signal intrusions into nests by competitors (Mainwaring et al.2016) and that density of birds can change as a result of urbanisation (Evans2010). Although only suggestive, such changes in nest design ...
In contrast to the 3T model, this study proposed a new method (modified 3T model) that considers the influence of the three-dimensional crown structure on the energy balance. Additionally, it retains the advantage over traditional ET models by not requiring the calculation of resistance parameters...
(or other undeveloped, non-urban land parcel)—to protect it from development, logging, industrial/Big Ag, or other destructive uses, and to conserve (or clean up/remediate and re-wild) the land, or to convert industrial farmland to organic farming. You can work with a regional Land Trust...

This was eroding badly and we were losing farmland in every flood. The solar pump is so light and easy to handle we can just lower it into the creek from a flying fox and have been able to stabilise and re-vegetate this old erosion. In summary going solar delivers a lot of benefits-...

Moreover, an industry-wide move towards biofuels may strain the current food supply ecosphere by competing with traditional food crops for farmland. Deforestation may also emerge as a result of encroachment on woodlands and rainforests. However, the long-term implications of more intensive biofuel ...
