® DOWNLOAD THE SCIENCE PLAN

The agroBIODIVERSITY cross-cutting network network of DIVERSITAS aims to inspire and facilitate interdisciplinary research for understanding the role of biological diversity in agricultural landscapes.

Agrobiodiversity, as used here, refers to managed and unplanned biodiversity in agricultural ecosystems, which closely interact with wild biodiversity within the larger landscape matrix.

The activities span the continuum from basic to applied research across eight benchmark sites worldwide and include adaptive land management in collaboration with local stakeholders.
