<p>Taking action to support pollinators is a key part of my priorities to improve
the natural environment and grow the rural economy.</p><p><br>Bees and other insect
pollinators are vital to the diversity of our environment. They play an essential
role in contributing to our £100bn food industry and are worth £400m to the economy.
They face many threats and some species are in decline.</p><p>This is why we have
published the National Pollinator Strategy on 4th November, a 10 year plan to build
solid foundations to bring about the best possible conditions for pollinators to flourish.</p><p><br>The
Government is committed to taking action to support pollinators across all types of
land across our country, enhancing the response to pest and disease risks, and to
improving our evidence base.</p><p> </p>
