Abstract
Loos, J., J. Gallersdörfer, T. Hartel, M. Dolek, and L. Sutcliffe. 2021. Limited effectiveness of EU policies to conserve an endangered species in high nature value farmland in Romania. Ecology and Society 26(3):3. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-12489-260303
Highlights
Low-intensity farming practices create and maintain valuable substitute habitats for native wildlife in regions with long histories of agriculture, such as lowland Europe (Wright et al 2012, Martínez‐Abraín and Jiménez 2016)
In Romania, this butterfly occurs in traditional farming landscapes of Transylvania dominated by high nature value (HNV) grassland
Colias myrmidone as a Symptom of Dysfunctional Support for High Nature Value Farmland? In this article, we focus on the tension between modern agriculture and conservation that determines the survival of endangered farmland species
Summary
Low-intensity farming practices create and maintain valuable substitute habitats for native wildlife in regions with long histories of agriculture, such as lowland Europe (Wright et al 2012, Martínez‐Abraín and Jiménez 2016). We unravel which factors hinder the effective conservation of this rare farmland and ecotone species despite the legally binding nature of Natura 2000 and financial support for HNV grassland in Romania through the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).
