In times of global insect decline, agricultural ecosystems need to be designed in an as insect-
friendly manner as possible to halt the progressive loss of biodiversity. This is particularly …

Simple Summary The aim of this study was to contribute to closing knowledge gaps on
managing vineyards and viticultural landscapes in order to support insect diversity and …

The expansion and intensification of agriculture are the main causes of current insect
declines. Pollinators like cavity-nesting bees can be limited by reduced nesting and feeding …

4. Designing corridors of plants that usher beneficials from nearby forests or natural
vegetation to field centers; 5. Selecting non-crop plants grown as strips in fields, whose …

Vineyard inter-rows can provide habitats for a range of plant and animal species especially
when covered with vegetation. However, frequent tillage results in the degradation of habitat …

Agricultural intensification is a major driver of wild bee decline. Vineyards may be inhabited
by plant and animal species, especially when the inter‐row space is vegetated with …
