Bring Back the Pollinators: Attracting Native Bees and Beneficial Insects

Native pollinators and predatory insects are the unsung champions of the agricultural world. Join the Xerces Society for an updated exploration into the ecology of these often overlooked and undervalued allies. Learn practical approaches for enhancing pollinator populations on working farms. Specific topics include the latest research on native bee contributions to crop pollination, an overview of pollinator and beneficial insect habitat restoration, the latest findings from our national conservation field trials, best farm management practices to enhance pollinators, methods of mitigating harm from pesticides, and financial and technical resources for pollinator conservation through the USDA. 
 
This workshop is approved for 1.5 Crop Management CEUs for Certified Crop Advisors.
