Agricultural activities, including arable farming and extensive livestock farming, are key to maintaining the habitats on which steppe birds depend. Agricultural impacts can be either positive or negative, affecting some species or the whole steppe bird community, and are in turn influenced by complex socio-economic factors, including conservation objectives. This roundtable will address these issues with the help of renowned scientists working at the interface between agriculture and bird conservation.
