"Madam President, annual honey production decreased in Poland by 4 000 tonnes in the last 10 years, and the number of bee families decreased from 2 000 000 to 1 800 000. In other countries of the European Union these declines have been much more dramatic. These data show that the population of this most useful of insects is dying at an alarming rate. In the EU, 80% of crops are pollinated by bees, so it is important to change the policy being followed in this sector. The processes that are currently taking place can leave irreversible effects in the ecosystem, and yet one of the priorities for future agricultural policy is to work actively for biodiversity. Money is needed to study the bee population, the reasons for its decline and the treatment of apian disease. We should also pay attention to human activity, which, through a more informed use of chemicals, can contribute to the creation of favourable conditions for the development of beekeeping. I did, of course, vote in favour of the report."@en1
