275 - Do Filter Strips Help Bees and Butterflies?
Manage episode 454614896 series 1393282
Filter strips surround agricultural fields and reduce soil loss and pesticide effluent reaching streams and rivers. They can also host flowering plants that bees and butterflies like. We talk to Dr. Amy Toth about whether these narrow ribbons of land can actually benefit pollinators.
