The future of the Montagu's harrier is strongly linked to the sustainability of cereal cultivation. It depends on our ability to reconcile agriculture and conservation, creating value for both. Choosing cereals that respect the life cycle of this species is not only about saving the harrier, it is about promoting more biodiverse and sustainable agricultural landscapes for everyone, with a valorisation of bird- and consumer-friendly practices.

SELECTED VARIETIES

The LVR is a list of cereals that are well suited to conditions in Portugal and is organised by ANPOC - National Association of Protein, Oilseed and Cereal Producers, in collaboration with INIAV, both partners of LIFE SOS Pygargus.
We will announce the selected varieties when the trials are completed.
