The importance of bees for crops
The importance of bees: not just for honey
Bees are known for the excellent products they provide us, such as honey, wax, and propolis, but their role in the environment is far broader. For example, these insects are crucial for the pollination of various wildflowers and medicinal plants that would otherwise struggle to reproduce.Furthermore, the cultivation of many fruit and vegetable products depends precisely on the work of bees: strawberries, apples, tomatoes, blueberries, and eggplants are just a few examples.
The behavior of bees can reveal a lot about the conditions of the environment around us. If the number of bees decreases in an area, the ecosystem of that territory is unhealthy and has lost its balance: unfortunately, this is happening more and more often due to smog, habitat destruction, climate change, the increase of intensive agriculture, and the significant use of pesticides and other chemicals.
However, fortunately, some local producers and farmers are increasingly committed to rediscovering and applying environmentally friendly and worker-respecting supply chains, offering only km0 genuine products that belong to the best Lucanian traditions.
