Join us to learn about the New England Pollinator Partnership (NEPP). The NEPP is an agreement between the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and participating landowners to help restore populations of the rusty patched bumblebee, monarch butterfly, and eight bumble bee species found throughout New England.
This partnership aims to increase pollinator habitat, reduce exposure of pesticides and pathogens to pollinators, and provide assurances to participating landowners that they will not be liable for harming protected pollinator species while carrying out pollinator conservation activities. Learn how participating landowners can benefit from increased abundance and diversity of crop pollinators and natural enemies (insects that help control crop pests).
This webinar is presented by the USDA NRCS East National Technology Support Center. Contact Jennifer Ryan, Science & Technology Training Library content manager, for more information about this webinar.
