The technique developed by Trinity College Dublin and the Technical University of Denmark can identify bees with 85% accuracy while monitoring their health and behaviour. A millimetre-wave radar system proved decisive
American study finds that major agricultural pollinators can adapt better than expected to moderate temperature increases. But extreme heat waves may jeopardize entire colonies
An innovative method combines chemical fingerprinting and machine learning to pinpoint the origin of soybeans with unprecedented accuracy. A practical tool to support the enforcement of stricter traceability rules
Thanks to their limited “flexibility,” orchids are early indicators of the crisis affecting insects. Since the 1970s, an analysis by the University of Canberra reveals, pollination in Australia has declined by 60%
A new study by Conservation International and IUCN reveals that over 20% of soil-related species could disappear. And the current lack of data suggests an even more problematic picture for biodiversity
On 27 May in Brussels, a meeting of seven EU-funded initiatives. The aim: to bridge the gap between local experimentation and European policymaking, and to deliver actionable recommendations for the rural bioeconomy
A U.S. study has examined 50 years of best practices: cover crops ensure more consistent effects, while tillage, rotations and drainage show less uniform impacts across different contexts
A Finnish study shows how introducing forest soil into domestic environments increases the microbial diversity of indoor air, with potential protective effects on the immune system of infants growing up in enclosed spaces
In the worst-case scenario, a study highlights, at least 200 species are at risk of extinction while 9 out of 10 plant habitats will face lasting changes. And there is ever less time to reverse the course.
