“…This puts the impacts of recent land use change on the same order of magnitude as the widespread extirpation of milkweed caused by GMO crop development and associated pesticide use over the last two decades-historically considered the pre-eminent threat to Monarchs 53,54 . Our results embody significant uncertainty, however, and recent field surveys suggest that milkweed concentrations on many types of grasslands prone to conversion may be even greater than estimated here 27 (see Supplementary Note 1).…”

On average, natural land converted to cropland contained an estimated 53.7 (±46.0) stems per acre prior to conversion, which is 3.4 times greater than the 15.6 (±10.4) stems per acre on all existing natural lands in the region (Fig.…”

“…For example, North American AV systems with solar-pollinator habitat may not effectively work to conserve populations of monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) -a candidate species for listing under the U.S. Endangered Species Act -without the onsite establishment of milkweed (Genus Asclepias), the larval host plant (Lukens et al, 2020).…”
