Field margins. The treatment of the strip of ground, or field margin, adjacent to the hedge, has important effects on the establishment of the hedge, and on its developing wildlife value. Avoid routine cultivation of this strip, but either mow it to form a grass sward, or preferably sow it with a mixture of wildflowers and grasses. This type of mix is less vigorous than commercial strains of grass, and will compete less with the hedge for nutrients, and will require less frequent cutting. Its value for invertebrates and other organisms will be much higher than a mown grass sward.... The width of the field margin will depend on the type of crop being grown, and on grants and other commercial factors. 2, record 1, English, - field%20margin

La bordure de champs est la partie qui longe les cultures et qui est définie par une bande végétalisée s’étendant de 1 à 5 mètres. Elle permet une séparation marquée du champ cultivé contigu à un autre champ, une route, un chemin ou une forêt. Elle abrite une biodiversité variée et réclame d’être entretenue. Cela participe au fonctionnement agro-écologique. 1, record 1, French, - bordure%20des%20champs

Crop margins(also known as conservation margins, or conservation headlands) are usually 6 to 12 metres wide, forming the outer margin of the crop, with usually a grass margin adjacent and outside it. The crop margin is cultivated as part of the field, but pesticides and fertilisers are reduced or ideally not applied at all to this margin, allowing arable annual plants and invertebrates to prosper. 2, record 2, English, - crop%20margin
