“Crédit Agricole & XNatura: the innovative biodiversity monitoring of the Parma headquarters"
As of May 2024, Crédit Agricole Italia launched an important biodiversity monitoring project at its headquarters in Parma. The project includes an in-depth analysis of biodiversity through the installation of two biomonitoring beehives, one Polly X, and two Spectrum sensors, which allow tracking of pollinator populations and maintaining the ecological balance of the park. Additionally, enriched pathways have been created with alternating rows of over 20 different plant species to encourage the presence of pollinators. Furthermore, Crédit Agricole has installed 23 shelters for butterflies, ladybugs, and wild bees.
Starting from May 2024, Crédit Agricole conducted a biodiversity assessment using Flora, a technology developed by XNatura in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA). Thanks to satellite images, an overview of the biodiversity potential of the headquarters was provided, identifying optimal areas for field monitoring and allowing continuous observation of vegetative dynamics to detect ecosystem changes over time.
Each XNatura assessment and monitoring suite is based on standard and recognized protocols that help you understand the priority level of your sites in relation to nature, biodiversity, and climate.
