SANETers,

I am currently looking for suggestions on outstanding journal articles or
sceintific books on the role of non-crop vegetation (e.g. hedgerows  and
vegetative buffer strips) and various other landscape modifications  (e.g
ponds) in enhancing on-farm biodiversity.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
