As part of its ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship, Growing Matters has relaunched its BeSure! campaign. This initiative is dedicated to instructing farmers and applicators on the conscientious use of neonicotinoids, aiming to mitigate risks to pollinators, crucial for biodiversity and agriculture alike.
The campaign, supported by industry leaders and organizations, serves as a reminder of the vital importance of following label instructions for pesticide products. This adherence not only supports pollinator health but also ensures the continued viability of agriculture by preventing crop loss due to pests and diseases.
With the threat of Citrus Greening highlighting the need for effective pest control, neonicotinoids offer a solution that, when used responsibly, does not endanger pollinators. The BeSure! initiative provides a wealth of resources for the agricultural community, from stewardship guides to educational videos, all designed to foster safe and effective pesticide use.
