BeeOmonitoring

Bees as natural drones. Continuously monitor plant biodiversity — species richness, abundance, invasive species — along with related habitats, ecosystem health and agricultural or industrial pollutants across 700 hectares (1,800 acres), tracking change over time with no sensor infrastructure.

Why BeeOmonitoring

Four reasons it creates business value.

  • Assess risks and mitigate negative impacts

    Identify pollution pressure, biodiversity loss or invasive species risks affecting your operations or supply chain — before they become a liability or regulatory issue.

  • Monitor and act at territorial scale, at low cost

    One bee colony covers 700 ha (1,800 acres) continuously, collecting pollen from millions of plants across the territory. No infrastructure to deploy or maintain. Nature-based, cost-effective — and precise enough to target actions where they matter most.

  • Evidence absence of pressure on local ecosystems

    Demonstrate to regulators, investors and communities that your activities are not creating adverse pressure on surrounding biodiversity or environmental quality — with independent, ground-truth data.

  • Engage stakeholders with understandable data

    Bees turn complex biodiversity and pollution data into something everyone can relate to. Engage farmers, local communities, investors and regulatory bodies around a shared, credible evidence base.

Reporting & dashboards

  • Full PDF monitoring report with all indicators, trend analysis and year-on-year comparison
  • Online dashboard in BeeOinitiative: track KPIs over time, compare sites, export data
  • Geo-referenced pollution map: identify origin of contamination by sector of the territory
  • CSRD / TNFD / SBTN aligned data export for regulatory disclosure
  • Benchmark against previous campaigns and against similar site types

Action plan

  • Prioritized on-site recommendations from our agronomists and bioengineers, based on monitoring findings
  • Habitat improvement proposals: plant species to introduce, management practices to adopt
  • Pollution reduction roadmap: source identification and mitigation pathways
  • Stakeholder engagement plan: communication materials for farmers, employees, regulators or citizens
  • Follow-up monitoring plan to track impact of actions over time

The process

Simple. Scalable. Science-based.

  1. Bees on-site

    Local bee colonies are placed on or near your site. A local beekeeper is trained to implement the protocol.

  2. Pollen collection

    Bees collect pollen samples continuously across the full territory. We provide patented collection equipment to ensure data quality and reproducibility.

  3. Lab analysis

    Certified laboratory identifies plant species and screens for pesticides, heavy metals, PFAS, PAHs, VOCs and other pollutants.

  4. Report & action plan

    You receive your report, an access to the platform and a prioritized action plan from our expert team — including recommendations to enhance biodiversity and reduce pollution.
