Took a walk in native Caatinga, set aside by one @SUFICA_Caatinga farm. So many dragonflies zipping around, one was caught on camera. We have photographic evidence of endangered Northern Tiger Cats here iucnredlist.org/species/540126… - not these footprints! @CamZoology
The @SUFICA_Caatinga project summarized in one slide. 96 online meetings!

Excited to arrive in Petrolina, NE Brazil, for @SUFICA_Caatinga meeting. It’s deep green (Caatinga = dry tropical forest, in its short wet season). We will meet farmers to discuss the wildlife we’ve found on their farms & how they can support it. @CamZoology @NewtonFund @ueaceec
Sharing results and gathering feedback from TopFruit, one of ten partner farms @SUFICA_Caatinga. Spoiler alert - tall perches for birds of prey, following Australian design, were not effective. Cover crops received more positive feedback.
Here's a taste of the amazing diversity of insects we found on grape & mango farms in NE Brazil @SUFICA_Caatinga

The first season of #AcousticMonitoring with @OpenAcoustics @AudioMoth devices has just finished across our fruit farms in Brazil. We'll do some data processing now before going back in the field in the wet season @LynnDicks @Nat_B_Zielonka @EduArellano3
New @Nature paper shows that from 2003 to 2019, cropland area increased by 9%, crop production by 25%, primarily due to ag expansion in Africa & South America. Half of the new cropland area (49%) replaced natural vegetation & tree cover. A wake up call! nature.com/articles/s4301…
Birds causing grape damage is a global issue, including in Brazil, but one that can be minimised with evidence-based management. At SUFICA, we worked with farmers to trial bird perches as a management method

New research on how to interpret camera trap data. Useful for @SUFICA_Caatinga @amunozsaez @EduArellano3 - we are analyzing many images from Caatinga fruit farms and their environs, stratified random rather than trail-placed?

Paper from Caatinga shows that landscapes rather than farms are the right planning unit for agroscapes in drylands sciencedirect.com/science/articl… We also show that the Caatinga landscape needs more conservation & restoration: mdpi.com/2073-445X/10/6… #agroecology

Vultures are common visitors to our grape farms in Caatinga in NE Brazil. The species include Turkey vulture (Cathartes aura), Black vulture (Coragyps atratus) and Lesser yellow-headed vulture (Cathartes burrovianus). #agroecology
A gorgeous Hoary Fox, locally known as Raposa-do-campo, was recorded by one of our trail cameras placed in Caatinga surrounding a fruit farm #agroecology #biodiversity @amunozsaez @LynnDicks @EduArellano3
