About BEESPOKE
Last changed: 13 December 2022
The overall objective of this transnational project is to increase the diversity of pollinators and pollination of cultivated crops at both local and landscape level by providing landowners and decision-makers with expertise, tools and economic knowledge to create sustainable and resilient agroeces systems.
BEESPOKE stands for Benefitting Ecosystems through Evaluation of Food Supplies for Pollination to Open up Knowledge for End users.
In June 2019, Interreg North Sea (North Sea Region) approved the BEESPOKE project. The project has an international website.

Insect pollination is worth around EUR 15 billion across the EU, despite this value reducing the number of wild pollinators due to fewer flower-rich habitats. To address this situation, the EU adopted a pollination initiative in 2018. The North Sea region is one of the most productive agricultural areas in Europe, but pollinators are declining throughout the region.
