Forest managers, wildlife conservation groups, policy makers, and other stakeholders often need to review literature on forest bird-vegetation relationships to inform decisions on natural resource management or ecosystem restoration. The literature gateway facilitates the exploration of this literature, helping users find references on a diverse range of management-relevant topics that have been compiled by subject experts based on searches of >60 different sources spanning the past 50+ years.

$500 Million from Farm Bill Is Part of Broader Commitment from FSA and NRCS to Working Lands
Conservation that Benefits Wildlife and Supports Agriculture and Rural Communities
BOULDER, Colo., June 27, 2023 – Today, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is announcing that it
will expand its work on wildlife conservation by investing at least $500 million over the next five years and by
leveraging all available conservation programs, including the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), through its
Working Lands for Wildlife (WLFW) effort. These commitments, which align with President Biden’s Investing
in America agenda, will ramp up the conservation assistance for farmers, ranchers, private forest owners and
tribes with a focus on working lands in key geographies across the country as well as hiring for key
conservation positions. The funding will help deliver a series of cohesive Frameworks for Conservation Action,
which establish a common vision across the partnership of public and private interests and goals for delivering
conservation resources in a given ecosystem, combining cutting-edge science with local knowledge.

To free up land for biodiversity conservation while satisfying growing food demand, techno-optimist narratives suggest indefinitely increasing agricultural productivity, including through massive pesticide use. But this view, which has made its way from an academic niche into corporate and policy-making circles, overlooks the complexity of natural ecosystems and the market dynamics that regulate access to food.
