Concern for bees – now Eco -Dispute on chemistry is raging on the rapeseed field

Date:

Animal rights activists, Global 2000 and Greenpeace respond indignantly to “the alert attack of the agricultural lobby against our helpless bees”.

The fields glow yellow here and there. But behind the golden rapeseed blossom, an old agricultural suspension is lurking: pesticides that have been forbidden in the EU for years would return! Lorenz Mayr, vice -president of the lower Austrian Chamber of Agriculture, had seen the end of rap seed cultivation because Brussels had forbidden the seed stains of this fruit. His fear: Without crop protection, this threatens the end for an important culture! A stab in the ecological wasp nest. Because he ignites a storm of indignation.

Warning for chemical clubs
“The request to reuse the chemical club of the neonicotinoids is ecologically very dangerous,” warns Alexios Wiklund of the Animal Protection Association: “Pesticides do not comply with field boundaries – they travel with wind and rain, seepage in flower.

More bees protection requires
Global-20000 areas guy Helmut Burtscher Damage: “The treated plants are converted into poisoning: the nectar becomes a fatal food, the pollen to the crawling nerve poison. Whole bees die.” Greenpeace boss Alex Egit and his expert Sebastian Theissing-Matei also move: “The call after returning to prohibited substances is not only an ecological risk-it is a relapse in old thinking patterns. Instead of chemistry it is a redeployment: to more biodiversity, sustainable management and protection for what our agriculture keeps alive.”
