The flower bands act as a lush fence between the fields outside Rydsgård.
The plantings consist of, among other things, honeysuckle, buckwheat, fenugreek and blood clover.
- Insects need to be present.
We have a responsibility to help the animals we have around us, says Mattias Hammarstedt, farmer.
His project Hela Sverige Blommar has led to hundreds of farmers in Scania investing in flower fields on their fields, with the ambition to protect biological diversity.
The flower fields were inventoried during the summer to see how the wildlife was doing and there were surprises.
More rare insects had found a home among the flowers in the field, including the red-listed moss bumblebee.
