荷兰的畜牧养殖不仅促进自然湿地,还能增加鸟类生命,并将排水农田数量增加三倍,有助于保护和碳储存。
Paludiculture in the Netherlands boosts bird life as much as natural wetlands and triples that of drained farmland, aiding conservation and carbon storage.
荷兰的一项研究发现,利用园林种植的湿地耕作——种植作物,如水化泥炭地上的灌木——支持与自然湿地相当的鸟类人口,比排水草原高三倍。
Wetland farming using paludiculture—growing crops like bulrush on waterlogged peatlands—supports bird populations comparable to natural wetlands and three times higher than drained grasslands, a Netherlands study found.
研究人员调查了10个肥育场地、9个天然湿地和9个排水草地,识别出具有保护关注的物种,如蛎鹬和草地鹨。
Researchers surveyed 10 paludiculture sites, nine natural wetlands, and nine drained grasslands, identifying species of conservation concern such as oystercatchers and meadow pipits.
这种做法有助于减少碳排放,减缓侵蚀,并为农民提供可持续的替代方案,联合王国的Somrset 水平和东安连风正在试验。
The practice helps reduce carbon emissions, slows erosion, and offers farmers a sustainable alternative, with trials underway in the UK’s Somerset Levels and East Anglian fens.
专家建议为避免繁殖季节而进行计时收获,以进一步支持鸟类生活。
Experts recommend timing harvests to avoid breeding seasons to further support birdlife.
研究结果发表在《生态解决方案和证据》中,重点指出,古生物学是平衡农业、碳储存和生物多样性的工具。
The findings, published in Ecological Solutions and Evidence, highlight paludiculture as a tool for balancing agriculture, carbon storage, and biodiversity.
