Context Agroecology combines agronomic and ecological concepts. It relies on the
enhancement of biodiversity and related ecosystem services to support agricultural …

The role of biodiversity in the delivery of ecosystem services is increasingly being studied by
trait-based functional approaches. Here, we review and discuss the contribution of a trait …

Increasing landscape heterogeneity by restoring semi‐natural elements to reverse farmland
biodiversity declines is not always economically feasible or acceptable to farmers due to …

Complex landscapes including semi-natural habitats are expected to favour natural enemies
thereby enhancing natural pest biocontrol in crops. However, when considering a large …

Context While the concept of ecosystem services (ES) is well established in the scientific
and policy arenas, its operationalization faces many challenges. Indeed, ES supply, demand …

The availability of diverse floral resources is crucial for the maintenance of pollinating
insects and the pollination service they provide in agricultural landscapes. Ensuring plant …

Semi‐natural habitats (SNH) are considered essential for pest‐suppressive landscapes, but
their influence on crop pests and natural enemies can be highly variable. Instead of SNH per …

Simple Summary Loss of semi-natural habitats in agricultural landscapes negatively affects
wild bees. These pollinators are, however, very important in agricultural landscapes as they …

Agroecosystems are facing new challenges in the context of a growing and increasingly
interconnected human population, and a paradigm shift is needed to successfully address …

Given the negative environmental effects of conventional agricultural techniques, the need
for biodiversity-friendly agriculture systems that rely more on ecosystem services and less on …
