📢 New paper alert! "Agroecosystem multifunctionality of apple orchards in relation to agricultural management and landscape context" By Robin Daelemans, Eva Hulsmans, Lysander Fockaert, @LiesbetVranken, Luc De Bruyn and @olivierhonnay sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New paper out led by @DaelemansRobin & @EvaHulsmans with an analysis of local management (organic vs IPM) & landscape effects on pollinators and yields in apple orchards. Presence of semi-natural habitats is much more important than local management. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🍎How do local management and landscape contexts affect biological pest control in apple orchards? 🍎The interplay of ecosystem services and disservices provided by #biodiversity is unraveled below🪳@DaelemansRobin @LeuvenPlantInst @KU_Leuven 👇doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

In our upcoming research, we will investigate trade-offs and synergies between multiple ecosystem services to identify effective strategies to make apple farming more sustainable. More about our project here:researchgate.net/project/Greeni… (7/7)

To summarize, our PSEM indicated that organic management and habitat conservation can enhance natural enemies and stimulate pest control, but also showed that these factors can enhance pest infestations and can even lead to an overall increase in pest-related crop damage (6/7)

How do local farm management and the surrounding landscape affect biological pest control in apple orchards? Our new paper is now published in @JAppliedEcology 👉besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13… With @EvaHulsmans, Emily Laenen, Serge Remy, Tim Beliën and @olivierhonnay 🧵(1/7)
