Insects are responsible for the major part of the ecosystem services pollination and natural pest control. If insects decline, these ecosystem services can not longer be reliably delivered. Agricultural intensification and the subsequent loss and fragmentation of habitats has among others been identified to cause insect decline. Ecological intensification aims to promote alternative and sustainable management practices in agricultural farming, for example to decrease the use of external inputs such as pesticides. Agri-environment schemes make amends for farmers if they integrate ecologically beneficial measures into their farming regime and can therefore promote ecological intensification. There is a wide variety of agri-environment schemes...
