ANNEX V COMMON FARMLAND BIRD INDEX AT NATIONAL LEVEL

Description

Change 220

Changed:The Farmlandcommon Birdfarmland Indexbird (FBI)index summarises population trends of common and widespread birds of farmland and is intended as a proxy to assess the biodiversity status of agricultural ecosystems in Europe. The national FBIcommon farmland bird index is a composite, multispecies index that measures the rate of change in the relative abundance of farmland bird species across selected survey sites at national level. TheThat index is based on specially selected species that are dependent on farmland habitats for feeding andor nesting, or nesting.both. National common farmland bird indices are based on species sets that are relevant to each Member State. The national common farmland bird index is calculated with reference to a base year when the index value is typically set at 100. Trend values express the overall population change in the population size of the constituent farmland birds over a period of years.
