Best practices in agroecosystems for the conservation of migratory birds
Best practices are actions that can be implemented in farms and productive landscapes to benefit agro-productivity as well as pollinators, biodiversity, water quality, soil fertility, and increase resilience to climate change. We present seven best practices that will improve the quality and sustainability of agroforestry crops such as coffee, generating favourable conditions for biodiversity in general, and migratory birds in particular. This series was designed based on ecological and climatic conditions of coffee growing regions in the Andes of Colombia, and we hope it can inspire coffee producers to contribute to bird conservation whilst improving the long term sustainability of their crops.
