nutrition is also probably a factor. Bees are losing a major source of their food—wildflowers. This is because farmers are planting crops on millions of acres of once-untouched land where wildflowers used to grow.
To try to address this issue, the White House has created the Pollinator Health Task Force. This group will take steps to try to protect and grow wildflowers on 7 million acres of U.S. land. Experts hope that this and other efforts will keep bees buzzing in the U.S. for many years to come.
