Short summary
In the 1980s and 1990s, experiments with extended buffer zones along field edges were set up. Vegetation were established by undersowing arable crops and wild meadow plants and by planting bushes. Three experiments are still in operation, in Kasby, east of Uppsala, and on Ekenäs Farm, near Flen.
