Oregon Bee Project Gets a Boost from Foundation for Food and Agriculture Pollinator Health Fund

March 29, 2018

The Oregon Bee Project is working towards measurement of improved pollinator health over time. This effort got a huge boost this week from the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (FFAR), a nonprofit established through bipartisan congressional support in the 2014 Farm Bill. A project led by Andony Melathopoulos of Oregon State University with help from partners at the Oregon Department of Agriculture and the Xerces Society received a $544,929 grant from FFAR’s Pollinator Health Fund to develop new tools for assessing the impact of the partners’ efforts on bee pollinator health.
