 Oh, my name is Micah Joseph. My name is Willie Whitemore. My name is Julian Woods. I would say climate change. Pesticides are no doubt one of the main threats to pollinators. Some of the pesticides we just have used in our country have been blamed in other countries for production and also for nutrition. Beekeepers can definitely make a living from beekeeping and Barbados. So they can generate income through selling honey, selling beeswax. Pollinators form parts of the protection goals in Kenya and PCPB has prioritized this by adopting a pollinator risk assessment process. Possible mitigation measures and restrictions are proposed based on the level of quantified risk. The mitigation measures are then applied on the label. Higher tier studies such as semi-field and field studies need to be designed for the Kenyan context. And when it comes to FAO guidelines or data requirements, there needs to be an update so that it can address the current data requirement for pollinator protection of reporting the mortality circumstances in Kenya. We recommend that farmers that the cause of mortality can be investigated and whether there is any link to pesticides use. My colleagues and I have definitely experienced the adverse effects of pesticides on bees, unfortunately. We did have someone from the Barbados Apiculture Association. This lady had her bees close to cotton field and the bees feed on the cotton flowers. And what happened was that they sprayed the entire cotton field with the pesticides and the bees continued to forage and then they all died. She lost all of her hives. We definitely struggle in Barbados with the fogging for mosquitoes. Sadly, bees are lost due to fogging. Not only the bees, but so are other pollinators. To reduce the impact of pesticides on bees, PCPP encourages adoption of integrated pest management strategies which incorporates using products that probably have no risk to bees and also using farm management practices that reduce pest prevalence. Ideally, the best way to reduce the impact that pesticides have on bees is to stop using these harmful pesticides. Realistically, however, the best way to reduce the impact that these pesticides have on bees, I believe, is to actually have highly specialized pest retardants that are not harmful to bees and all other pollinators. Looking further at promoting the use of organic pesticides. The message I would like to pass across the participants of the Global Seminar is to embrace monitoring of the status of pollinators, whether it is at country level or regional level. More research needs to be collected to reach this data gap. So my message to the people of this Global Seminar is let us take action. Let us discover and utilize pest retardants that are not harmful to bees and other pollinators. Remember this. If we get rid of bees and other pollinators, lots of the foods that we consume will disappear entirely and we will suffer greatly.
