Report about ecological focus areas

The report "Collective implementation of ecological focus areas" evaluating effects on ecosystem services, agriculture and administration is now available in English. Ecosystem services are fundamental to the welfare of mankind, yet these services are often invisible in many social decisions. The report  "Collective implementation of ecological focus areas" evaluates the effects on the ecosystem s

Sowing strips of flowering plants has limited effect on pollination

Many pollinating insects benefit from a small-scale agricultural landscape with pastures, meadows and other unploughed environments. In landscapes dominated by arable land, they lack both food and nesting places. Sown flower strips can increase the availability of food for pollinating insects, and are therefore assumed to benefit pollination. However, new research from Lund University in Sweden sh

Farm2Forest – on sustainable agriculture in a biobased future

Research and society in close cooperation: that is the basis for Farm2Forest, a project aiming to produce evidence guiding Swedish and European agricultural and forestry policymaking. The idea is to combine economic and ecological data and models to evaluate different future scenarios for marginal agriculture in forest-dominated landscapes which, in terms of surface area, accounts for a significan

EU agrees on a ban on the use of neonicotinoids

The European Union will ban the world’s most widely used insecticides from all fields due to the serious danger they pose to bees. The ban on neonicotinoids, approved by member nations today, is expected to come into force by the end of 2018 and will mean these insecticides can only be used in closed greenhouses.This ban on three main neonicotinoids has widespread public as well as scientific supp

Catalysing a switch to a circular economy through plastic waste prevention

The CEC and Lund University is part of the core team for Climate-KIC's latest Flagship programme, eCircular, aiming to crack down on plastic waste and radically reduce the use of plastic materials. The project eCircular aims to explore and use innovative digital tools to improve plastics waste prevention. This can, for example, include blockchain solutions for improved market transparency, data an

Field study of biodiversity

The COST project has been studying if there is any difference in biodiversity found at organic and conventional farms. Some of our colleagues at the CEC have spent summer doing fieldwork studying bumblebees. Romain Carrié and others from the COST project have collected pollen from bumblebees and surveyed flower resources at 19 different farms in Skåne.– From earlier fieldwork, we know there is a d

Winter loss in honey bees in Sweden

The CEC has produced a new report evaluating analyses and data collection of winter loss in honeybees in Sweden. Swedish beekeeping rely on the health of the honey bee Apis mellifera. Loss of colonies during winter is an indicator of poor honey bee health.This report evaluates current data collection of winter loss in honey bees in Sweden, with the purpose to give recommendations for future improv
