Abstract

We present an approach to modelling interdependent types of vegetation that support different functions in a managed ecosystem. For optimal management, plants that provide economic output (e.g., crops) and those that support ecological functions (e.g., wild plants or ‘weeds’) should coexist in an agroecosystem. To make progress with understanding how such plant communities interact over time, we analyse paired time series data about the cover of crop and weed vegetation in oilseed rape fields. The percentage crop and weed cover were measured every 7–14 days at 128 sites in the UK, covering a wide range of localities and management regimes.
