[Alerte ail des ours]
Lundi 27 février se tenait une conférence de l'ethnobotaniste du #CBN Pyrénées, Raphaële Garetta. Au cœur de l’intervention : Allium ursinum, une plante sauvage très prisée des cueilleurs, et de plus en plus en vue dans la filière agro-alimentaire.
Et le sujet n’est pas anodin. L’ail des ours est une ressource qui connaît une pression conséquente ces dernières années, en raison du regain d’intérêt pour les produits naturels, la cueillette sauvage et les préparations “maison”.
Un enthousiasme alimenté par un éventail de médias, chaînes youtube et autres coach nature, qui encouragent la consommation de plantes sauvages sans mettre en garde sur les précautions à prendre pour limiter les pressions sur ces ressources, ni sur les risques de confusion.

It's worthy of note that this government is bent on inflicting more pains on average&poor Nigerians.

They want to charge both cashed&cashless(online) transactions.
