Bayer CropScience Invests $100,000 to Improve Pollinator and Wildlife Habitats

With a desire to improve and expand pollinator and wildlife habitats on public right-of-ways, Bayer CropScience LP is investing over $100,000 with Integrated Vegetation Management Partners Inc., (IVM Partners) in an integrated vegetation management program.

IVM Partners, a nonprofit organization that is a liaison for industry, agency and conservation, develops programs and provides education on vegetation management and conservation best practices. The organization will work with Bayer on case study sites managed by utility or transportation rights-of-way.

The project aims to improve habitats for pollinators, birds and other wildlife in upland and wetland ecosystems in sites across eight states: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida, Oregon, North Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.

“Bayer’s investment in this project will bring together efforts to improve pollinator and wildlife habitat, safety and aesthetics on utility and highway rights-of-way,” said Jim Blome, president and CEO of Bayer CropScience LP. “Our collaboration with IVM Partners is a model for how public-private partnerships can benefit the environment through research and implementation of best practices.”
