Tosaf acknowledges the significance of pollinators in #agriculture and the #environment. This drives our efforts to create solutions that protect crops while also supporting the thriving organisms involved. In a recent example, we collaborated with BOB, a pollination services provider, to investigate the issue of bees being discouraged by #UV stabilizers used in #greenhouse films. Our specialists determined which wavelengths needed to be kept to keep the bees content and changed the chemicals accordingly. This is only one example of the many difficulties that might arise when using agricultural #plasticfilms and the Tosaf’s specialists commitment to developing solutions that take all elements into account.

Conservation agriculture is a soil management practice that can benefit both the environment and farmers. By using crop rotation, no/minimal tillage, and mulching/soil cover, it helps preserve soil fertility while also reducing labor during planting season. #ClimateActionNow

What did you know about conservative Agriculture? #Conservation Agriculture (CA) optimizes natural resource use through integrated management of #soil, #water, and #biological resources. Its core principles—permanent soil cover, minimal disturbance, and crop rotation—enhance #soil health, boost #biodiversity, and improve resilience to #climate change. CA promotes #sustainable farming by ensuring long-term productivity and environmental conservation. #sustainableagriculture #sustainablefarming #climatechangeaction Rev5, The 5th Revolution of Agriculture

This #WorldBeeDay, we're called to “Bee engaged in pollinator-friendly agricultural production”. 🐝 We need bees and other pollinators to safeguard the vitality of our ecosystems and ensure food security, but some farming production methods, like improper pesticide use, can threaten bee populations. Learn more about World Bee Day and the plight of bees by visiting https://lnkd.in/dPMNfwQ.
