Crop Spraying – BeeConnected

BeeConnected (beeconnected.org.uk) is designed to help keep beekeepers notified when a neighbouring farmer is applying insecticides to their crops.

Farmers & Spray Contractors

Please register as a farmer, enter the details of when and where you’re planning to spray an insecticide that may present a risk to bees (for instance on a flowering crop, or where the field has a conservation buffer strip), and a simple notification will be sent to neighbouring beekeepers registered with the system.  NRoSO members can now claim 2 CPD points per year for registering and using BeeConnected. 

Beekeepers

Please register as a beekeeper, enter the position of your hives on our easy to use mapping system, and you will receive notifications from registered farmers when they are planning to spray their crops at a proximity of your choosing up to 5km away.
