Protecting Farmland Pollinators Action Sheet 1
In 2019, the National Biodiversity Data Centre received funding through the Department of Agricultural, Food and the Marine for a five-year European Innovation Partnership (EIP) project called ‘Protecting Farmland Pollinators’. By working closely with a group of 40 farmers, chosen to reflect differing farm types and intensity levels, it identified actions that will allow biodiversity to coexist within a productive farming system.
In consultation with farmers we have developed the first Action Sheet using the data from the Protecting Farmland Pollinators EIP project. This action sheet outlines how best to create solitary bee nest sites on your farm. Find out how best to create solitary be nest sites on the farm here.
