Opening of first French Bee Observatory

The French Bee Observatory will enable researchers to observe at close range the changes in bee populations in the Var region. H.S.H. Prince Albert II supported the establishment of the observatory through his Foundation to protect the species, which is an indicator of the correct balance of nature. This is a particularly crucial subject for study since a third of the world’s food supply depends on pollinating insects, primarily wild or domestic bees, which are endangered in numerous areas of the world.
