1 Bee Safety f Nenictinids - Evidence frm Studies Cnducted Under Realistic Field Cnditins Dr. Christian Maus Glbal Pllinatr Safety Manager Bayer AG

2 Intrductin Nenictinid insecticides are used as seed treatment in varius crps. Amng these there are bee-attractive crps like ilseed rape, sunflwer, and maize After nenictinid seed treatment, traces f systemic residues can be fund in nectar and pllen f treated crps This has led t cncerns abut their safety t bees and ther pllinatrs Althugh mnitring data d nt suggest a systematic crrelatin between the expsure f bees t nenictinids and bee health issues, the use f nenictinids in bee-attractive crps has been restricted in the EU in 2013 In rder t cmplement existing field data, a large scale field study with nenictinid-treated ilseed rape (treatment with Elad -10 g clthianidin & 2 g β-cyfluthrin/kg seed) was cnducted in Nrthern Germany

3 Setup and Purpse f the Study Cnceptual apprach f the mnitring study in Mecklenburg Mnitring ptential adverse effects at landscape level Cmparable landscapes fr cntrl und treatment Spatial prximity f bth landscapes: clse enugh t ensure cmparable climatic and tpgraphical cnditins distant enugh t avid hneybees t crss-frage Agricultural landscapes with significant ilseed rape cultivatin and lw abundance f ther flwering crps r wild plants distracting bees frm the target crp Cmmn ilseed rape cultivatin practice with pre-agreed and defined crp prtectin measures Large-scale farm peratins required t ensure regulated crp prtectin regimen Study design Mnitring f the clthianidin residue levels in nectar and pllen during blm Mnitring ptential adverse effects n pllinatrs which differ in life histry traits

4 Similarity f Cntrl and Treatment Sites Attractiveness fr Bee Pllinatrs Tw sites f apprx. 65 km 2 each were selected accrding t field crpping area, statistic and land cver data Study area Cntrl 16% Oilseed rape Treatment 21% alternative frage areas withut frrage surces Site C Site T

5 expsure time Similarity f Cntrl & Treatment Sites Crp phenlgy Cntrl fields received 1 2 additinal pyrethrid applicatins t ensure cmparable ilseed rape emergence

6 Characterizatin f Expsure Residue levels in nectar and pllen f ilseed rape during blm 39 x 50 m² = 0,2 ha [18 fields, Ttal ilseed rape area 792 ha] N residue detects in ilseed rape pllen r nectar in cntrl landscape (n = 34)

7 Investigatin f Ptential Adverse Effects Three bee pllinatr species with different life histry traits Hneybee (Apis mellifera) Life histry traits: cmplex scial cmmunity with task share Cmb cells f wax Hives with wrkers Thermregulatin Full clny verwintering Winter fd stres Bumblebee (Bmbus terrestris) Life histry traits: Less cmplex scial structure and task share Cmb cells f wax Hives with 500+ wrkers Thermregulatin Only queens verwinter Limited fd strage Red Masn bee (Osmia bicrnis) Life histry traits: Slitary bee Nests in tube-shaped structures e.g. in deadwd Overwinter as pupa (ccns)

8 Mnitring Results Hney Bees (Apis mellifera) Eight bee clnies per mnitring lcatin (=1 replicate) Six replicates per site (treatment and cntrl) Distributin f replicates per site: 3 replicates adjacent t ilseed rape fields, 3 replicates in 400 m distance. Mnitring lcatin adjacent t field Pst-expsure phase: west-central Germany

9 Mnitring Results Hney Bees (Apis mellifera) (1) Adult hney bees Typical seasnal clny develpment pattern N statistically significant impact f treatment r distance t fields 1 1 (GLM Mdel, p > 0.05)

10 Mnitring Results Hney Bees (Apis mellifera) (2) Bee brd Typical seasnal grwth pattern N statistically significant impact f treatment r distance t fields 1 1 (GLM Mdel, p > 0.05)

11 Mnitring Results Hney Bees (Apis mellifera) (3) Hney yield (Spring) N statistically significant impact f treatment Statistically significant impact f distance t ilseed rape fields

12 Mnitring Results Hney Bees (Apis mellifera) (4) Residue levels in pllen and nectar Trace residue levels in few f cntrl pllen & nectar samples Residue levels in treatment landscape cmparable t tunnel samples * 1/96 Pllen- & 3/96 Nectar samples with detects < LOQ ** 42/48 Hney samples with detects < LOQ

13 Cnclusins Hney Bees (Apis mellifera) Hney bees intensively fraged in treated fields (73-83% ilseed rape pllen fund in hney) Residue levels in nectar, pllen and hney ranged between Limit f Detectin (< LOQ) and 1.4 µg Clthianidin/kg There were n treatment-related adverse effects bserved n: clny strength and develpment (adults, brd) hney yield pllen cmpsitin infestatin with parasites and diseases

14 Mnitring Results Bumblebees (Bmbus terrestris) Three Tripls (= 3 bumblebee clnies) per mnitring lcatin (= 1 replicate) Six replicates per site (treatment and cntrl) Distributin f replicates per site: 3 replicates adjacent t ilseed rape fields, 3 replicates in 400 m distance.

24 Overall Cnclusins The chsen landscapes cntrl and treatment were sufficiently similar in terms f tpgraphy, climate, sil types and crp phenlgy t deliver a rbust cnclusin n whether r nt Clthianidin pses an unacceptable risk t ppulatins f insect pllinatrs Residue levels in pllen and nectar f ilseed rape in the treatment landscape were in the range f residue levels fund in previus studies, i.e. highly representative expsure situatin There were n treatment-related shrt- r lng-term adverse effects recrded fr the Clthianidin seed treatment t three bee species with different life histry traits

25 Overall Cnclusins The chsen landscapes cntrl and treatment were sufficiently similar in terms f tpgraphy, climate, sil types and crp phenlgy t deliver a rbust cnclusin n whether r nt Clthianidin pses an unacceptable risk t ppulatins f insect pllinatrs Residue levels in pllen and nectar f ilseed rape in the treatment landscape were in the range f residue levels fund in previus studies, i.e. highly representative expsure situatin There were n treatment-related shrt- r lng-term adverse effects recrded fr the Clthianidin seed treatment t three bee species with different life histry traits

26 Further Large-Scale Field Studies Examples fr ther large-scale field studies under realistic field cnditins: Studies in canla in Canada (2005 and 2012). Evaluatin f clny health ver ne seasn and after verwintering Multi-site field study in maize in France. Lcatins in fur different regins, study cnductin ver three cnsecutive years ( ) Field study in Suthwestern Germany (2008). Evaluatin f clny health ver ne seasn and after verwintering. In nne f these studies, adverse effects f nenictinid seed treatment prducts t hney bee clnies have been bserved. Since field studies prvide a direct insight int the interactin f pesticides with bee clnies, they prvide highest-tier evidence fr the ectxiclgical risk assessment
