Hedgerows are managed habitats, of which there are about 690,000km of in Ireland, providing habitats for wildlife, food for birds and pollinators, providing boundaries on fields and sequestering carbon.
Hedges need to be at least 1.5m in height to allow birds to nest, but all types of hedgerows have a role for biodiversity, whether they are dense and stock-proof.
