BEE POSITIVE

In a world increasingly aware of the urgent need for environmental action, the call to embrace a 'nature positive' mindset resonates louder than ever. With vast expanses of private gardens spanning the UK, comprising an area nearly twice the size of Somerset, individuals hold significant power in shaping ecosystems. As cities devote nearly 30% of their domestic space to gardens, the potential for positive change becomes apparent. Amidst climate and biodiversity crises, the imperative to transition towards a nature-positive approach by 2030, as highlighted in a recent report involving the UK’s statutory nature agencies, becomes paramount. But what exactly does 'nature positive' entail? It goes beyond mere mitigation efforts; it demands proactive measures to enhance the planet and its biodiversity. As Francesca Osowska, chief executive of NatureScot, asserts, it is the collective responsibility of all to adopt this ethos. Amidst these challenges, the plight of bees emerges as a focal point. Their crucial role in pollination underscores the significance of creating bee-friendly habitats within our gardens. With innovative solutions like Actiferm and BeeWellness®, opportunities arise to not only support biodiversity but also foster healthier ecosystems. Embracing such alternatives represents a tangible step towards a more sustainable and nature-positive future.

Bokashi v Compost

Bokashi v Compost

The agricultural sector in the UK is facing increased scrutiny for its greenhouse emissions, prompting governments worldwide to introduce ambitious targets and new legislation. The Environmental Land Management scheme (ELMs), replacing the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), emphasises public funding for public goods, prioritising landscape management, watercourse protection, and emissions reduction. This shift towards environmental stewardship has led to a resurgence of traditional farming methods and a focus on soil regeneration and carbon sequestration. Bokashi, a fermented organic matter, emerges as a promising solution, demonstrated in trials to increase soil organic matter, improve nutrient content, boost crop yields, and reduce carbon loss compared to traditional composting methods. These findings align with ELMs objectives, highlighting the potential of regenerative agriculture to address environmental challenges while ensuring agricultural sustainability and food security.
