Vasileios Bontzorlos of Tyto on Barn Owls as a perfect agricultural nature based solution
"We can help the land, so the land can help us"
How to solve the problem of rodent infestations costing farmers in Thessaly, the breadbasket of Greece, more than EU100m each year, while mitigating overuse of rodenticides that harm biodiversity, ecology and human health? With the perfect nature-based solution, of course…
Spend some time in the home and in the fields at dusk with agricultural ecosystem expert Vasileios Bontzorlos to hear all about Tyto, the company that expertly researches, fosters and manages communities of wild barn owls across 100s of kilometres of farmland, while enabling a thriving and biodiverse ecosystem.
The question is, as the dusk light fades, will we see one of the elusive barn owls?...
Discussions include:
- The myth surrounding the barn owl and why they are so connected to humanity
- What it takes to change the mindsets and practices of rural communities
- The true definition of Regenerative Agriculture
- Why you should read E.O Wilson after Dawkins
- How to pave the way for a career connected to nature
- Why you might want to approach barn owl boxes with an umbrella...! And much more besides.
