Healthy soils are key to life and sustainable farming. This year’s theme, “𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐨𝐢𝐥𝐬: 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞, 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫, 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞,” highlights the need for better soil data. Ready to build a sustainable future? Let’s work together! 🌱 #WorldSoilDay #Biobest

#FunfactFriday Did you know some stink bugs help control pests? The spined soldier bug (Podisus maculiventris) feeds on leaf beetle larvae, caterpillars, and other garden pests. If you spot one, don’t chase it away - it’s a natural pest controller! #didyouknow #stinkbug #biobest

#TuesdayTip With autumn here, daylight is fading and temps are dropping, which means beneficial insects are slowing down. Keep a close watch on your crops using Crop-Scanner, especially for #whiteflies! Reach out to your #Biobest expert for more advice.
