In the first assessment of its kind, a new study examining global trends and distribution of pesticide toxicity found that total applied pesticide toxicity is increasing, posing a threat to the UN Biodiversity goal of reducing pesticide risks globally by 50% ⚠️📈🌍.

Pollinators boost the reproduction of 75% of global crops, contributing up to 8% of total food production 🐝
A study on 24 crops found that higher pollinator abundance increases yields, with stronger effects in temperate regions & conventional farms 🌍🧪

Bumblebees behave differently in areas with more honeybees. Does this represent competition and what can we do about it? Really, we need to learn more. Great to have funding from @researchireland.ie to continue this work, and hopefully provide better advice for beekeeping and conservation
