Bees pollinate a third of the plant species we eat
Bees play a crucial role in pollination and therefore in the reproduction of various plant species such as fruits, vegetables and oilseeds.
Without the presence of bees as a vector of pollination, the production of the amount of food needed to sustain today’s society could be at risk.
Bees are fundamental to the preservation of ecosystems and biodiversity
Bee colonies are currently facing a number of challenges, including climate change, pesticide use and deforestation.
How can we promote the maintenance of healthy hives and in significant numbers, helping the proliferation of bees and agricultural sustainability?
