Sometimes amidst the challenges of climate change, there's hope to be found in unexpected places. 🦗🔬 One solution may lie in insects (and not just through pollination.) A recent study found that plants are producing less pollen which doesn’t bode well for our global food supply. Pollinator-friendly frass to the rescue! A separate 2023 study suggested that utilizing insect exoskeletons as soil amendment could enhance plant reproductive success, increase flower production, and attract pollinators while combating pests. 🌺🌿🐝 So, insect frass may be a useful tool to help mitigate the pollination crisis.
