Crop yield loss under high insecticide regime driven by reduction in natural pest control.
Article in Proceedings. Biological sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Current agricultural pest management mainly relies on the use of synthetic insecticides with strong adverse impacts on the environment or humans. Decreasing crop productivity in the case of pesticide-use reduction has been a prominent argument against such reductions. However, the relationship between insecticide use and crop yields is complex. Through long-term monitoring of yields, farming practices, pest populations and natural pest control across 383 fields of oilseed rape-one of the most insecticide-intensive crops in Europe-we reveal a negative relationship between yield and insecticide use when application rates exceed 36.2 g ha
