Weak recovery of insectivorous bird populations after ban of neonicotinoid in France, hinting at lasting impacts
Neonicotinoids are expected to play a significant role in the decline of bird populations through their adverse effects on food resources (primarily i…

🚨 New study out in Journal of Hazardous Materials (urlr.me/WCSNJm): we tracked pesticide pressures across France using the new Total Applied Toxicity (TAT) index. Unlike older indicators, TAT accounts for both pesticide amounts and their toxicity. 🌱🐝🐟 #pesticides
Temporal trends in pesticide pressure differ among non-target species groups but show spatially consistent patterns across France
The negative impacts of pesticides on biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and human health are broadly documented and numerous policies have been pro…

📣 🪲 Check out this paper led by @tperrot.bsky.social, which provides a clear demonstration that the intensive use of pesticides can be more detrimental than beneficial for crop production due to their negative impacts on natural pest control.

New publication in Proceedings B: urlr.me/qZ39CJ. We show that the use of insecticides reduces rapeseed yields beyond a threshold of 36g/ha. The reason is that insecticides reduce natural regulation, leading to an increase in insect pests and weeds!
Crop yield loss under high insecticide regime driven by reduction in natural pest control | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
Current agricultural pest management mainly relies on the use of synthetic insecticides with strong adverse impacts on the environment or humans. Decreasing crop productivity in the case of pesticide-...

Nouvelle publication dans Proceedings B: urlr.me/qZ39CJ. Nous montrons que l’utilisation d'insecticides réduit les rendements de colza au-delà d’un seuil de 36g/ha. La raison, les insecticides réduisent la régulation naturelle entraînant une augmentation des insectes ravageurs et des adventices !
