The potential for agri‐environment schemes to reverse farmland bird declines is limited for some species by a lack of suitable prescriptions, in particular effective in‐field options for species that breed in crops. We assess the provision of alternative nesting habitat for increasing productivity of the Corn Bunting Emberiza calandra. Breeding success was monitored over three years in response to...
Agri-environment scheme (AES) management has increased populations of cirl buntings (Emberiza cirlus) in South Devon, England, and might be expected to provide benefits for other declining biodiversity, due to less intensive farm management. Fields managed under AES for cirl buntings (low-input spring barley or permanent pasture without inputs) were contrasted with control fields under conventional...
Declines in habitat quality through the breeding season within a bird’s home‐range can limit overall productivity. In environments where multiple breeding opportunities arise during the course of a season, these effects can be buffered by a shift to different breeding sites or habitats. We studied the distribution and habitat associations of a crop‐nesting farmland bird, the Yellow Wagtail Motacilla flava...
