‚Data on the stated willingness to accept collective agri-environmental schemes for biodiversity conservation of European grassland farmers‘ ICYMI: new paper in Data in Brief 🥳 led by Viviane Fahrni and @robehube.bsky.social 👏 with many further coauthors www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Open data - open science! This valuable work led by Viviane Fahrni and @robehube.bsky.social in the @biodiversa.eu project @greenet-project.bsky.social coordinated @bab.gv.at offers comparable data on a choice experiment, attitudes & preferences of farmers on biodiversity in 6 countries in Europe.

The meeting allowed us to discuss diverse European agri-environmental policies that tackle collaboration at landscape scale. The excursion to the wonderful flowering alpine meadows of Feldis/GR taught us opportunities and challenges of in-situ conservation in agriculture.

Impressive but alarming contribution by our @greenet-project.bsky.social colleague Zander Venter, #NINA NO, to the greentogrey.eu project. 'Loss by country size' would be much higher for 🇦🇹 if only habitable area would be considered. Benchmarking: 🇨🇭 is comparable and doing much better.

As part of our assembly, we had the chance to visit the Corncrake LIFE project 🌾— working closely with farmers and landowners to improve habitat for corncrakes. Huge thanks to Liam Loftus and John Carey for the inspiring exchange and valuable insights! 🦗👏 @biodiversa.eu

Wrapped up our yearly assembly for GreeNet 🌿— a research initiative focused on grassland conservation, safeguarding biodiversity through ecological networks. Funded by @biodiversa.eu, we had productive discussions on our progress and next steps. Exciting work ahead! 💬🌱🧠 #Biodiversity #Grasslands
