Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pollinators are important components of our ecosystems, as well as being important contributors to agricultural production. Highway right of way (ROW) is one potential habitat for pollinators. The objectives of this study were to assess existing practices of other agencies for promoting pollinator habitat within the ROW and to identify potential locations for pollinator habitat in Missouri. The study methodology included a review of academic and practitioner literature, survey of state departments of transportation (DOTs), DOT interviews, and geographic information system (GIS) analysis. The literature review found that various practitioner resources are available regarding site assessment, best management practices (BMPs), planting guidance, and other topics related to promoting pollinator habitat within the ROW. The literature addresses the suitability of a particular site for pollinator habitat based on various factors such as cover and health of existing vegetation, mowing frequency, soil texture and pH, land use, site size, sunlight, water availability, and accessibility. Survey results indicated that the most frequently utilized methods for promoting pollinator habitat in the highway ROW are planting native species that benefit pollinators, limiting the frequency of mowing, and vegetation management practices. DOTs perceive the designation of right of way on DOT facilities and reclassification of existing habitat as the most effective methods for promoting pollinator habitat. GIS was used to analyze multiple data layers (including ROWs, public lands and bodies of water, and land use/land cover) to quantify potential available land for pollinator habitat development and connectivity with other natural landscapes. A 500’ buffer around the ROW parcels was used to identify potential intersections with parks, natural areas and bodies of water. GIS files transmitted with this report will allow MoDOT to examine the locations of upcoming projects to identify those warranting further consideration as pollinator habitat"--Documentation page.

Download or read book The Humane Gardener written by Nancy Lawson and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Her unique approach, which she calls “horticultural how-to and woo-woo,” is a blend of vital information you need to memorize and intuitive steps you must simply feel and surrender to. In A Way to Garden, Roach imparts decades of garden wisdom on seasonal gardening, ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, design, gardening for wildlife, organic practices, and much more. She also challenges gardeners to think beyond their garden borders and to consider the ways gardening can enrich the world. Brimming with beautiful photographs of Roach’s own garden, A Way to Garden is practical, inspiring, and a must-have for every passionate gardener.
