Overview of the projects in the current Work Programme.
Agroscope develops foundations for preserving biodiversity in agricultural environments and maintaining diverse agricultural landscapes. In addition, Agroscope examines how agroecosystems function and how agricultural crops and ecological compensation areas affect biodiversity.
You’ll find publications on this topic here.
Using (among others) computer-assisted spatial analyses, Agroscope investigates how land use impacts the landscape.
Ecological Compensation and Functions
Biodiversity can also be maintained and promoted with innovative cultivation strategies, e.g. with rice crops north of the Alps.
Computer-assisted methods and databases can be used to gauge the state of the Swiss agricultural landscape.
