Darwin Initiative Newsletter highlights the ADEPT project
Darwin Initiative January 2009 newsletter summarises some underlying concepts of the ADEPT project - the European and global importance of the biodiversity of man-made landscapes, and the key role played by farmers in maintaining such landscapes - and describes some outputs of the project, in particular, research into the practical links between specific agricultural management and maintenance of high biodiversity, and economic incentives to promote continued biodiversity-friendly management by linking high nature value farming and agricultural income.
