Weed seed predation, agricultural intensity and landscape composition data in winter wheat fields in Skåne, Southern Sweden
- Data on weed seed predation were collected by using seed cards.
- Data on weed seed availability were collected by using suction sampling
- Data on management intensity data were collected from an ad-hoc selection of farming professionals
- Data on habitat refugia were extracted through landscape analysis using the program ArcMap(ESRI, v. 10.4.1)
- Data on and carabid community, that were used to estimate the community strength of seed predation, were collected using pitfall traps.
The dataset consists of five files that include data on:
1.Data on weed seed predation were collected by using seed cards. (1.seed_predation.csv)
2.Data on weed seed availability were collected by using suction sampling (2.seed_availability.csv)
3.Data on management intensity data were collected using ad-hoc selection of farming professionals. Specifically, communication with persons working with farm management in different roles (owner, tenant, employed) about management intensity. As we have not documented the role, they cannot be identified (3.management_intensity.csv)
4.Data on habitat refugia were extracted through landscape analysis using the program ArcMap(ESRI, v. 10.4.1) (4.habitat_refugia.csv)
5.Data on and carabid community that were used to estimate the community strength of seed predation were collected using pitfall traps. (5.community_strength_of_seed_predation.csv)
Should be noted that there is no coded key to the fields 1 to 13. The field data are linked with another dataset, where the fields have other field ID numbers and there is no correlation between this numbering and the one used.
