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生境和物种多样性的主要驱动因素。然而，泥炭地、草地和与农业相关的物种是最令人担忧的。不可持续农业做法的持续负面影响突出表明，需要在欧盟2030年生物多样性和从农场到叉子的战略之间采取一种全面整合的方法。为了支持环境保护委员会加强农业景观生物多样性的雄心，需要先进的系统来监测生物多样性特征及其在时间和空间上的变化。这种生物多样性监测系统将支持在欧洲农业景观中执行注重成果的政策。BioMonitor 4CAP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，并在代表欧盟主要农业生态地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：1)新的指标物种(如蝗虫)；2)遗传多样性(EDNA)；3)现场传感器(如翅膀拍打频率、声音)；4)功能多样性(如传粉者)；4)各种空间措施。支持制定和执行经修订的农业政策并确保农村发展，该项目将涉及多个利益攸关方群体，特别是农民、自然资源保护者和服务提供者，因为通过维护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/或适销性很难理解。

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 habitats to be tested, calibrated, and demonstrated in five European regions representing 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.
