Description of the research topic:

Low intensity farming is an essential tool for maintaining farmland biodiversity and ecosystem services (eg pollination, soil fertility, pest control). Effective management requires research knowledge and continuous monitoring. The research examines the impact of grassland overseeding and establishment of flower plots on arable land in the Kiskunság on biodiversity and ecosystem services, all in a landscape context. The question is how sowing with native plants, especially with Leguminosae, can restore soil fertility of old fields, and thus increase biomass and biodiversity. The question regarding the flower parcels is how far the effect penetrates into the landscape on biodiversity and ecosystem services.
