Managing Farming Footprint on Biodiversity.

The article talks about a simple risk-assessment model focused on the prediction and analysis of the effects of environmental change on farmland biodiversity. The biological mechanisms connecting the changing environment to the changing population size and the focus of conservation biology on the management of biodiversity in an agricultural setting are discussed. The article also talks about the study conducted by S. J. Butler and his colleagues which evaluated how farmland birds respond to changes in the farmed environment.
