Nébih warns of plant pests

There has been a sharp increase in the number of bumblebee species across the country – the National Food Chain Safety Agency (Nébih) warned soybean farmers.

In addition to soya, the bumblebee is also a threat to sunflower and sugar beet, and in the event of a severe infection, it can cause snoring in a short time. Nébih calls on the growers concerned to start a table-top assessment of the infestation of the bumblebee in order to understand the situation and prevent damage. (MTI)
