The idea that noncrop habitat enhances pest control and represents a win–win opportunity to conserve biodiversity and bolster yields has emerged as an agroecological paradigm. However, while noncrop habitat in landscapes surrounding farms sometimes benefits pest predators, natural enemy responses...
There is an ongoing debate on what constitutes sustainable intensification of agriculture (SIA).

The BBN was created with information from Rivas, Nicaragua, using local farmer knowledge on tree species, trees' costs and benefits, farmers' expressed ...

Yet, uncertainty produced by local context or parameter estimation remains poorly quantified and documented. ...
