We are happy to announce a new Wild Farm Alliance briefing paper Wild Pollinators: Agriculture's Forgotten Pollinators.
Speaking to farmers, the paper elaborates on how to attract native pollinators, lists pollination-dependent crops and their native bees, has real-world case studies, and gives ten reasons why native pollinators are important to the farm and the wild. We would appreciate your help in reaching out to make sure Wild Pollinators: Agriculture's Forgotten Pollinators becomes one more compelling reason for farmers to work with and benefit from wild Nature. Let us know if you would like copies mailed to you for use at meetings and events, in classrooms, and work with policy and the media. We are also interested in co-hosting events about native pollinators on the farm. Please contact us at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For a single copy of the paper, download it at: <http://www.wildfarmalliance.org/resources/wfapollinatorbrief.pdf>http://www.wildfarmalliance.org/resources/wfapollinatorbrief.pdf We appreciate the assistance from the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation with this paper. The Wild Farm Alliance promotes a healthy, viable agriculture that protects and restores wild Nature. We envision ecologically managed farms and ranches that gracefully meld into landscapes that support, if possible, the full range of native species and ecological processes.
