SEEDS WANTED

I am Amir Abdullah, the technical advisor on beekeeping development of the Sambangdiri Foundation that has impact groups in nearly all regions of Indonesia. Sambangdiri is based in Jakarta, Indonesia. It is a private non-profit making organisation committed to generating income at the grass-root level, especially in rural areas.

l read in B&D44 on page four how lupin seeds are used for repelling termites and on page five, how important the tree Hypericum revolutum is for bee colony development. I need the seeds to fight against termites and sustain the beekeeping development of Sambangdiri’s impact groups. If you can help us, kindly provide us with seeds.

Amir Abdullah, Indonesia
