Birds Canada's work on the Canadian Prairies is focused on finding solutions to the systemic issues that are the root cause for bird population declines. This presentation will focus around the Bird-friendliness Index, and the role it can play in enabling an agricultural system that conserves birds while sustaining the livelihoods of the people on the land.
