BEE2GETHER: Strengthening an innovative cross-border system for the improvement of biodiversity through bee monitoring

BEE2GETHER capitalizes on key outputs of the ITA-SLO 14-20 BEE-DIVERSITY project in order to strengthen them, make them known to a wider audience, and disseminate them to a wider area. Building on past experiences, the project further develops the innovative management model based on bee monitoring from which the most suitable and environmentally, economically and socially sustainable agricultural cultivation techniques are identified. Through the collection of timely data on the health of bees and the possible presence of heavy metals and other pollutants in pollen, PP provides a characterization of the target area, i.e., identifies the potential problems present and, consequently, identifies management strategies that limit or diminish threats to biodiversity conservation. This management model is based on the use of electronic beehives and an ICT system (APP).
