Advanced biodiversity monitoring for results-based and effective agricultural policy and transformation

不可持续的农业做法是影响欧盟农业景观中栖息地和物种多样性的主要驱动因素。然而，泥炭地、草地和与农业有关的物种是最受关注的。不可持续的农业做法的持续负面影响强调需要在欧盟2030年生物多样性和从农场到餐桌战略之间采取全面综合的方法。为了支持欧共体提高农业景观生物多样性的目标，需要先进的系统来监测生物多样性特征及其随时间和空间的变化。这种生物多样性监测系统将支持在欧洲农业领域实施基于结果的政策。BioMonitor4CAP项目将设计先进的生物多样性监测系统，主要评估目标物种和栖息地的多样性，在代表欧盟主要农业生态区的五个欧洲地区和代表全球生物多样性热点之一的秘鲁一个地区进行测试、校准和示范。该项目将把作为欧洲监测框架一部分的经典指标系统（如农田鸟类指数）与最近以独立系统形式开发和应用的各种指标系统结合起来：i)新的指标物种（如蚱蜢），ii)遗传多样性（eDNA）， iii)现场传感器（如翅膀拍击频率，声音），iv)功能多样性（如传粉媒介），iv)各种空间测量。支持制定和实施修订后的农业政策并确保农村发展该项目将涉及多个利益相关者群体，特别是农民、保护主义者和服务提供者，因为很难理解通过维持和加强生物多样性和相关监测系统提供的公共和/或私人产品的价值和/或适销性。

Unsustainable agricultural practices are major drivers affecting habitat and species diversity in agricultural landscapes of the EU. However, peatland, grassland, and species associated with agriculture are of most concern. The ongoing negative impacts of unsustainable agricultural practices emphasize the need for a fully integrated approach between the EU 2030 Biodiversity and Farm to Fork Strategies. Supporting the EC`s ambition of enhancing biodiversity of agricultural landscapes advanced systems are required to monitor biodiversity features and their changes over time and in space. Such biodiversity monitoring systems will support implementation of result-based policies in the European agricultural landscapes. The BioMonitor4CAP project will design advanced biodiversity monitoring systems mainly assessing diversity of targeted species and habitatsto be tested, calibrated, and demonstrated in five European regionsrepresenting the major agro-ecological regions of the EU and one region in Peru representing one of the global biodiversity hot spots. The project will combine classical indicator systems that are part of the European monitoring framework (e.g. Farmland Bird Index) with various indicator systems mostly recently developed and applied in form of standalone systems: i) new indicator species (e.g. grasshopper), ii) genetic diversity (eDNA), iii) on-site sensors (e.g. wing beat frequency, acoustic sounds), iv) functional diversity (e.g. pollinators), and iv) various spatial measures. Supporting development and implementation of revised agricultural policies and ensuring rural development the project will involve among multiple stakeholder groups particularly farmers, conservationists, and service provides as the value and/ or marketability of public and/or private goods delivered through maintained and enhanced biodiversity and related monitoring systems are hardly understood.
