More than just a barrier to divide a space, hedgerows also makegood fences. In Great Britain, some hedgerows are hundreds of years old. Farmers maintain them by cutting out old growth and occasionally trimming. If a gap happens due to a plant dying, they put another in its place. The re...
Why is species evenness important to biodiversity? How does climate affect biodiversity? Why is biodiversity one of earth's greatest natural resources? Why does deforestation reduce biodiversity? Why is biodiversity a good thing? How do hedgerows increase biodiversity?
The hypothesis is that the main determinants of hedgerow biodiversity are related to farming activities. This hypothesis has been tested in three hedgerow network landscapes differing in their density of hedgerows and their relative abundance of grassland versus crops. The dominant agriculture of the ...

Why do rainforests have high biodiversity? How can biodiversity be affected by evolution? What resulted in th...
Hedgerows were only occasionally recorded. Hence, narrow grassy field margins can represent a large part of the available seminatural habitats adjoining agricultural sites and potentially act as corridors between further habitat patches. For this reason, these margins should be protected from pesticide ...
