Publisher's Synopsis
How are birds affected by different farm management practices? For nearly 30 years the British Trust for Ornithology has monitored the status of birds breeding on farmland in Britain. This book looks in turn at each of the major habitat types found on British lowland farms such as hedgerows, field margins and ponds. It provides crucial information which will ensure informed decisions can be made which will benefit the bird population and wildlife, without detracting from the efficiency of the farm.
