Neonicotinoids, Pesticides that Threatens Honey Bee Population, http://nationalgeographic.co.id/berita/2017/12/neonicotinoids-pestisida-yang-mengancam-population-lebah-madu/28 December 2017
According to a recent study, the use of pesticides endangers the honeybee population. Exposure to agricultural pesticides, neonicotinoids, is associated with 'mass extinction' in bee populations.
However, pesticides are not the only cause. Intensive farming is known to decrease the nutritive quality of sugar in nectar and pollen that bees eat. And when the bee's sugar consumption is low, 50% chance they will die when exposed to neonicotinoids.
Swallow's Nest Exports Increase, APPSWI Optimistic of Presidential Decree 45 of 2023: https://jatim.kompas.tv/regional/449378/ekspor-sarang-burung-walet-meningkat-appswi-optimis-perpres-45-tahun-2023/5 October 2023
The problems of the Association of Indonesian Swallow's Nest Breeders and Traders or APPSWI to penetrate the export of swallow's nests to China have come to fruition, due to the issuance of a Presidential regulation. Even though it generates quite high foreign exchange for the country, swallow's nest exports to China have so far been hampered by an MOU from China. In 2022, the country's foreign exchange generated from swallow exports will generate 25 trillion. In 2023, APPSWI predicts there will be an increase in swiftlet exports by 1800 tons, compared to 1500 tons previously in 2022.
The struggle of the Indonesian Swift Nest Breeders and Traders Association or APPSWI for many years has borne fruit with the birth of Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia number 45 of 2003 concerning the Indonesian Quarantine Agency. Later, swallow's nest exports will go directly to China without going through Malaysia.
