📢 We’re hiring! We’re looking for an enthusiastic and highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team at @funcagroeco.bsky.social The position focuses on how collaborative agri-environment measures affect multiple taxa and ecosystem services. See: www.uni-goettingen.de/en/vacancy+f...

Do agricultural diversification practices pay off in the long run? Our new paper synthesizes 100+ years of evidence showing that diversification practices become more profitable over time and delivers growing benefits for soils, biodiversity, and carbon. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New article led by Evan T. Sloan🐝 Pollen metabarcoding shows strong preference for Cichorioideae in the specialist bee Osmia leaiana. Foraging patterns are driven by local flower abundance and nearby semi-natural grasslands. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @basicapplecol.bsky.social

Landscape composition determines reproductive success: more cropland and forest reduce brood cell numbers. The results highlight how local plant communities and land use shape specialist bee #conservation and could guide grassland #restoration. Thanks for funding @biodiversa.eu @dfg.de

Back to the office after a great time at the GFÖ conference! We shared talks & posters on bee health, ground-nesting, grassland #Restoration, bird #Conservation, combinations of landscape-scale conservation measures, and the establishment of perennial flower fields as #AECM. @gfoesoc.bsky.social

Huge congrats to Qian Zhang on finishing the first chapter of her dissertation and publishing a major study! Big milestones — well done! 🥳 #PhDJourney

Using pollen metabarcoding, we found that B. lapidarius and B. pascuorum forage across the landscape, relying particularly on flowers in non-productive AES within small grassland fragments. 🌼 doi.org/10.1016/j.bi... @uni-goettingen.de @agrarunigoe.bsky.social

📝 Paper alert: Our study shows how non-productive agri-environmental schemes (AES) boost pollen diversity for bumblebees in fragmented, dry grasslands. doi.org/10.1016/j.bi... #Pollinators #Biodiversity #Agroecology #Metabarcoding #ConservationScience @uni-goettingen.de @agrarunigoe.bsky.social

Great excursion to Frau Holle Land! 🌿🐑🦋 Traditional sheep grazing keeps rare dry grasslands alive — we even spotted the thyme blue butterfly (Phengaris arion) and the bee orchid (Ophrys apifera). Plus, rare segetal flora like Venus’s comb and tasty orchard snacks along the way.

Many thanks to the fantastic team for making our outreach activity a great success! Your creativity, energy, and dedication turned complex scientific topics into fun and engaging experiences for everyone who visited.

More isn’t always better. Landscape-scale measures that offer both nesting habitats and floral resources support bees more than those boosting only flowers. We show empirical evidence of synergistic and antagonistic effects of organic farming, flower fields, and natural habitats.

Well done! Congratulations to this gereat and comprehnsive landsape-scale study 🥳

Vegetation monitoring has started in our perennial flower fields: After 2 years, our 100% native #wildflower mix is still thriving 🌿🌼🐝 — we recorded many sown and wild plant species, with only few problematic weeds or grasses. #ProjectKooperativ #NextCAP 🚜 www.uni-goettingen.de/en/628701.html

It’s a privilege to teach #ResourceManagement in landscapes as rich as the Bratental near Göttingen. Thanks to conservation authorities and @bsggoettingen.bsky.social, these unique habitats are being successfully preserved and managed.
