Increasing plant diversity with border crops reduces insecticide use and increases crop yield in urban agriculture
Urban agriculture is making an increasing contribution to food security in large cities around the world. The potential contribution of biodiversity to ecological intensification in urban agricultural systems has not been investigated. We present monitoring data collected from rice fields in 34 comm...
