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.
