Implication

Research assesses the impact of agricultural lands on understory bird diversity, suggesting management implications for biodiversity.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate how different agricultural land types influence understory bird diversity in Southeast Asia.
  • Assessed monoculture oil palm and rubber tree plantations, as well as polyculture orchards
  • Conducted mist-netting for bird capture from 2017 to 2023
  • Compared bird abundance and richness in agricultural lands to forest reserves
  • Orchards had the highest bird abundance and richness among agricultural lands
  • All agricultural lands contained less than half the bird species found in forest reserves
  • Forest specialists dominated in forest reserves, while nonforest specialists were predominant in orchards and plantations
