Despite nearly 15,000 people calling
Despite nearly 15,000 people calling for better support for farmers and wildlife, the UK Government recently approved the use of a bee-killing pesticide (known as a neonicotinoid or neonic) on sugar beet crops in England for the fourth year in a row.
For our February edition of Wild LIVE, we will be discussing why more than a third of sugar beet farmers chose to not use the chemical in 2023, and how we can support more to make that transition and stop the reliance on these hugely damaging pesticides.
Hear from our panel:
- Anabel Kindersley, Co-Owner of Neal's Yard Remedies
- Dave Goulson, Professor of Biology and Ambassador for The Wildlife Trusts
- John Pawsey, Organic Farmer, Shimpling Park Farm
- Vicki Hird, Strategic Lead for Agriculture at The Wildlife Trusts
This will be a live online discussion and we will be putting your comments and questions to our panel in real-time.
