English term

farmland

English to Spanish Science Agriculture
The results of this study suggest that growing such GM crops could have implications for wider "farmland" biodiversity.

In 1999, the government of the United Kingdom asked an independent consortium of researchers to investigate how growing genetically modified crops might affect the abundance and diversity of "farmland wildlife" compared with growing conventional varieties of the same crops.

Any light on this "farmland" in both paragraphs. Thanks in advance.

agrícola (ver nota)

creo que la palabra está usada aquí como adjetivo y no apunta tanto a denominar la superficie o los terrenos propiamente tales, sino el concepto referido a lo agrícola. En el primer caso se refiere a la biodiversidad agricola y en el segundo a la fauna que habita los terrenos / superficies agrícolas.
