註釋The Canadian Wildlife Service is currently responsible for advising on risks to wildlife and their habitats associated with the new or continuing use of pesticides in Canada. To facilitate the development of exposure scenarios for risk assessment and the design of field studies, databases and supporting documentation were developed on the extent and bird use of farmland habitat in the mixed-wood plain (MWP) ecozone in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence region. Data was abstracted from scientific publications, graduate theses and government reports since 1950 for studies conducted in Canada and the US with agricultural practices similar to those in the MWP. Bird use data (37 percent from Canadian study locations) was tabulated for 56 farmland habitats (including 35 crops) by species, month, activity (e.g., feeding, nesting), and intensity of use. This report presents the results of that study, including data on land use by type of crop, bird use by crop, and an annotated bibliography.
