More hedges lead to more insects—even in relatively green agricultural areas
Field margins where hedges have been planted attract twice as many insects as those without hedges. This holds true even in agricultural areas that already contain plenty of natural habitat, according to research published in Basic and Applied Ecology by ecologist Robin Lexmond at Radboud University. Flower strips can also help, but not as much as hedges.
