With the Sustainable Farms project in three countries in Europe the multinational BASF aimed to demonstrate that intensive agriculture can go hand in hand with a high biodiversity as a result of appropriate local agro-environmental measures (AEMs). In Belgium, the company intended to accomplish the development of a bird- and bee-friendly farming model by applying specific AEMs in an agricultural area near Dilbeek (province of Vlaams Brabant, Belgium). Two sites were selected by BASF to develop these specific AEMs: a farm at Sint-Martens-Bodegem (SMB), with the surrounding arable fields, and arable lands at a nearby site in Sint-KatherinaLombeek (SKL). These sites have a combined size of approximately 150 ha. INBO was asked by BASF to give advice about how to install specific AEMs, and to conduct breeding bird monitoring at these two sites. Researchers of the University of Mons explored the impact of AEMs on wild bees. The project was widely referred to as “Sustainable Farms – Brussels”.
