In the project INPEDIV - Integrative Analysis of the Impact of Pesticides and Land Use on Biodiversity in Germany - it is to be determined whether the biodiversity losses in the German landscape are largely side effects of the use of pesticides.
Which animals and wild plants live on the pesticide-treated fields? And what effects do the pesticides have on the nature around them? To answer these questions, Benito Schöpke and colleagues from Leibniz Center for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF) carry out research in the area close to Eberswalde northeast of Berlin. In the current edition of IQ Magazine, a podcast from BR, he talks about the project and biodiversity in the field.
The podcast is available online in full length at:
