Kew Gardens Tracks Bee Preferences to Combat Pollinator Decline
Kew Gardens scientists are using bio-acoustic sensors to monitor bee activity on eight tree species at Wakehurst, aiming to identify bee-preferred trees for urban planting to combat the 60% decline in UK flying insects over 20 years and support the 90% of flowering plants that rely on pollinators.
