LSU has a fundamental article that is available at https://www.lsu.edu/.../06/pollinators-morgan-christman.php from LSU Ecologist Assistant Professor Morgan Christman, an Ecologist, about how we need to protect pollinators. Without honey bees relationship with flowers for Pollination, the transfer of pollen (male element) to another flower to fertilize an embryo seed, about 1/3 of our food supply would disappear. And then think of all the flowering plants in our environment that require this 'bee' and flower relationship to keep our environment alive and sustainable. Dr. Christman talks about her relationship with Master Gardners and Naturalists to identify where areas in Louisiana need support. But is not just Louisiana, it is about your State and my State. And it's not just about production agriculture, it's about your garden, your yard, that empty field next to your house and how you need to connect to your neighbors and friends so that they can help each of us.
