    Why bees matter
    The importance of bees and other pollinators for food and agriculture
    2018
    Also available in:

    For centuries bees, busy as they are known to be, have benefited people, plants and the planet. But did you know that bees are not the only ones that sustain life on earth? By carrying pollen from one flower to another, bees, butterflies, birds, bats and other pollinators facilitate and improve food production, thus contributing to food security and nutrition. Pollination also has a positive impact on the environment in general, helping to maintain biodiversity and the vibrant ecosystems upon which agriculture depends. To encourage pollinator-friendly practices in agricultural management and stop the decline of pollinator populations, FAO carries out various activities. Every year on 20 May, World Bee Day offers an opportunity for all of us to pay tribute to pollinators.

    Bees provide a critical link in the maintenance of ecosystems, pollination. They play a major role in maintaining biodiversity, ensuring the survival of many plants, enhancing forest regeneration, providing sustainability and adaptation to climate change and improving the quality and quantity of agricultural production systems. In fact, close to 75 percent of the world’s crops that produce fruits and seeds for human consumption depend, at least in part, on pollinators for sustained production, yield and quality. Beekeeping, also called apiculture, refers to all activities concerned with the practical management of social bee species. These guidelines aim to provide useful information and suggestions for a sustainable management of bees around the world, which can then be applied to project development and implementation.

    This newsletter will consist of four articles on four ongoing projects in Eritrea with FAO's support. These projects are fundamental to modernizing agriculture in Eritrea. It is imperative for FAO to document and communicate FAO's role in agricultural development in Eritrea and also invite more development partners who would like to see concrete agricultural work in progress. Further, this newsletter will enhance FAO’s role which currently is not as visible as other UN agencies in Eritrea. The p ublication will be complemented by photos taken during the projects’ progress. On the whole we can say this publication can be summarized as a platform that will inform and communicate FAO’s objectives to a variety of audiences. Covers January - April 2017
