The lecture is public, so anyone interested can take part. Registration takes place via the “Österreich forscht” platform.
A short summary of the content of the lecture:
In the last 30 years, the number of insects, especially those that pollinate flowers, has shrunk enormously. The main reasons for this are the loss of habitat and the loss of food sources. Area sealing, green areas similar to golf turf and intensive, large-scale agriculture are among the causes. At PolliDiversity we want to find out in different areas of Austria which pollinators, but especially bees and wild bees, visit four selected plant species with different flower shapes in differently structured landscapes.
