The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Pesticide doses, landscape structure and their relative effects on farmland birds (2014, result): “…reduce the probability of spurious result because this would have negated several imporant results supported by sound hypotheses and predictions about gricultural effects on species assemblages within communities. orrection procedures are much debated in ecology for this reason e.g., Moran, 2003).”
The Hidden and External Costs of Pesticide Use (2016, background): “Pesticides have a particularly strong impact on birds (Mitra et al. 2011 ), through direct deaths and the reduction or elimination of habitats and food sources.”
Impacts of agricultural intensification on bird communities: New insights from a multi-level and multi-facet approach of biodiversity (2016, background): “…effects of agricultural intensification on bird diversity, resulting from habitat homogenization across spatial scales (Pickett and Siriwardena, 2011), and from increased use of pesticides (through toxicological poisoning or by resource depletion; (Boatman et al., 2004; Mitra et al., 2011).”
Organochlorine pesticides, their toxic effects on living organisms and their fate in the environment (2016, background): “Prolonged use of pesticides causes a drastic decrease in birds like the peregrine falcon, sparrow hawk and bald eagle (Mitra et al. , 2011).”
