FRAMEwork has published evidence-based guidelines on supporting viable farming on marginal lands across diverse European regions. Land abandonment poses a critical challenge to European biodiversity, food security and rural livelihoods. As economic pressures drive farmers to exit production on marginal lands, former agricultural areas rapidly transition to scrubland and woody encroachment, reducing habitat diversity for farmland specialists. FRAMEwork has published guidelines

The project's interactive online game and set of virtual farm tours is designed to test and build players knowledge of on-farm biodiversity. Farmers' knowledge of biodiversity on their land directly affects their willingness to engage with environmental schemes and adopt management practices that support wildlife.
