Renewable power capacity is increasing globally in response to energy decarbonisation,
with solar photovoltaic (PV) projected to be the dominant renewable. A significant proportion …

The main contemporary challenge for agriculture is to meet the food demands of the
increasing world population while becoming more environmentally sustainable. One way to …

Agricultural intensification and associated loss of high‐quality habitats are key drivers of
insect pollinator declines. With the aim of decreasing the environmental impact of …

Pollinator declines, changes in land use and climate-induced shifts in phenology have the
potential to seriously affect ecosystem function and food security by disrupting pollination …

Abstract Hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) are a diverse group of pollinators and a major
research focus in ecology, but their phylogenetic relationships remain incompletely known …

Pollination is a key ecosystem service for agriculture and wider ecosystem function.
However, most pollination studies focus on Hymenoptera, with hoverflies (Syrphidae) …

Animal pollinators are in a serious decline due to habitat loss, isolation and landscape
fragmentation, putting pollination services to crops at risk. Hedgerows have been repeatedly …

Pest control by natural enemies (natural pest control) is an important regulating ecosystem
service with significant implications for the sustainability of agro-ecosystems. The presence …

The objective of this work is to find the most prevalent elements that have positive effects on
pollinator density and diversity in crop fields, as reported in the literature, through a …

Rising demand for food production poses a major threat to biodiversity by placing competing
pressures on land. Diversified farming systems are one widely promoted nature-based …
