<Contents>
We will hold a study session for Mr. Hiroshi Yoshikawa, an NPO corporation that is developing Be Forest activities nationwide to create forests with Japanese bees. More than 70% of vegetables and plants pollinate via honeybees, but the number of honeybees has decreased sharply in recent years. Mr. Yoshikawa, who had been beekeeping until around 2016 while living a natural farming method of rice cultivation, natural beekeeping, and a semi-self-sufficient life in the southern part of Nara Park, said, "The number of bees is decreasing! I stopped beekeeping and started this activity. "Now, the couple are traveling all over the country, saying that they should not only use nature and forests, but also protect and regenerate them, and tell them how to live with nature on their side. Can't make a forest by itself? Who makes apples and vegetables? Knowing the function of polluting insects (polynates), the natural ecosystem surrounding forests and Japanese honeybees, the relationship between insects and agriculture, the theory of nature, the honey industry (Western honeybees) Learn about the environmental load of bee raising).

Be Forest Activities
—————————————-
You cannot create a forest just by planting trees. Now, the number of insects and pollinators is decreasing. If they are gone, the forest will be gone and agriculture will not be possible. For wild Japanese honeybees that can't live in modern life, nest boxes have been set up all over Japan to increase the pollination rate of plants to increase the productivity of agricultural products in the area and to protect natural forests. We are working to encourage regeneration. If you become a member, you can get a birdhouse with a birdhouse subsidy. Anyone can set up a birdhouse while receiving support through seminars and training participation.

Be Forest MAP
—————————————-
We will report the nesting of Japanese honeybee hives and map the health of insects and forests on a map of Japan. We will work together to create a world where nature is protected by law. Now, its activities are spreading all over Japan, with Kumamoto in the south and Iwate in the north. In Nara Prefecture, the base of this activity, we have begun investigating insects by injecting taxes. Iwate will also cooperate to create a map.

Be Forest Iwate
—————————————-
It was launched in the summer of 2020 with the hope that future children will be able to live with nature on their side so that agriculture can continue permanently in this beautiful northern land of Iwate. Japanese honeybees are connected to the forest and everything. Wouldn't we Iwate people be led by Japanese honeybees and connect loosely? Let's work together to create the scenery of Iwate.
