Life Wild Bees

Pollinating insects play a major role in our society.

By providing the ecosystem service of pollination, they ensure the agricultural production essential to our food.

For example: In the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, the pollination service is estimated at more than 450 million euros in food production for humans in 2010.

The LIFE Wild Bees project

The State has established a National plan for pollinating insects and pollination (2021-2026), hosted, among others, by the Office for Insects and their Environment (Opie). Consistently, the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region committed in June 2017 to the implementation of a Regional Plan in favor of pollinators.

In this context, the five Regional Natural Parks (PNR) of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, accompanied by the Region, have decided to think together about an inter-PNR action plan in order to limit this decline and allow the maintenance of the pollination service. on their territories.
