Mriya agroholding launches interactive map for beekeepers
Mriya agroholding has launched a first interactive map of bee plants in Ukraine, where it has fields with all bee plants of the agroholding. The press service reported that the map also indicates variety of plants, the projected period of blooming, information about scheduled spraying works and the required number of be families for good entomogamy and other information.
Director for Public Relations and Social Projects at Mriya Nonna Shmidik said that the agroholding actively supports the cooperative movement and the share of beekeeping cooperatives among those created by the agroholding is large.

“Beekeepers from six regions of Western Ukraine, where Mriya operates (Ternopil, Khmelnytsky, Chernivtsi, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv and Rivne) using this tool will be able to access the relevant information on more than 60,000 hectares of bee plants grown by the agroholding , apply for and reserve seats for their apiaries in certain areas. In addition, users of the interactive map are provided with SMS-information about the blooming time and the application of crop protection agents,” the agroholding said.
