Bee’s death effect on global life.
By Modeste NKURIKIYIMANA
According to the department of the United States in charge of Agriculture, (USDA) Honey bees are crucial in the pollination of many crops, but are still dying off at a worrisome rate, because of pesticides used in multiple farming worlds. More than 80% Rwandans are farmers, and the only news they have about bees, is the natural healing power in the honey.
Scientists and Rwandan bee keepers say the devastating rate of bee deaths is the causative fact of natural honey due to the growing use of pesticides sold by agrichemical companies to boost the agricultural production.
The death of bees doesn’t only affect bees but also contributes to the shortages of honey and its natural health too. Due to its shortage, honey vendors try to pirate it by adding refined sugar, which damage human life and next to many diseases. Said BARAHIRA JEAN DE DIEU, one of rwandans beekeepers and expert.
