Arthropod but not bird predation in ethiopian homegardens is higher in tree-poor than in tree-rich landscapes.
Bird and arthropod predation is often associated with natural pest control in agricultural landscapes, but the rates of predation may vary with the amount of tree cover or other environmental factors. We examined bird and arthropod predation in three tree-rich and three tree-poor landscapes across s...
