Our findings suggest that replanting oil palm and choice of mono or polyculture have relatively few effects on butterflies, but management for specific features in plantations could benefit butterf...

The @InsectGroup are launching the Ecological and Social studies in Smallholder Tropical Agriculture (ESSTA) project. This project will be linked closely to the @BEFTAprogramme and will explore ecological, social and interdisciplinary dynamics within oil palm smallholdings.#ESSTA
