Beschrijving:
The book is in English and Dutch (“Een horizon vol weidevogels”: Internationale ecologische kennis die de landbouw in Zuidwest-Friesland met biodiversiteit verbindt).
In an attempt to recreate an agricultural countryside full of breeding waders, at least in our minds, this workshop aimed to present and discuss a series of landscape scenarios for Zuidwest-Friesland. The workshop brought together the experts with deep knowledge on particular breeding meadow bird species and their habitats. Within the context of the existing landscape and infrastructure, using variable agricultural management practices to achieve different outcomes, experts were asked to formulate “dream landscapes” where different wader species may once again encounter suitable habitat. By making the utopias species-specific, we hoped to harvest the widest range of ideas and scenarios.
The result is the book “Meadowbirds on the horizon of southwest Friesland”: Harvesting international ecological knowledge to connect farming practices in the southwest of Friesland with biodiversity.
Summary: In the low countries of Europe, the downsides of industrial agriculture have been highlighted by the rampant loss of farmland birds, some of the most enigmatic of which are waders. The International Wader Study Group (IWSG) has played its role by first summarizing the ever declining numbers of breeding waders in Europe. In an attempt to be upbeat rather than the usual ‘depressed’, the IWSG international workshop in Workum, Friesland, The Netherlands on 28 September 2018 took an idealistic approach. We put all the work on our disappearing breeding waders to good use in the design of ideal landscapes with various species of meadowbirdson the horizon!
