Influenced by her mother and father and by chance upon seeing a beehive, Martha Flores Garcia, originally from Xochimilco, decides to become a beekeeper. She works with hives and bees for about 20 years in her apiary between the borders of Mexico City and the State of Morelos. Through the breeding and care of the bees, and once they complete the process, which lasts about three weeks to a month, wearing a mask, gloves, overalls, and a smoker with pine cone, Martha collects honey, jelly, and wax to make and obtain various products such as propolis, pollen, cosmetics, essences, nutritional supplements, chocolates, candies, among others. Approximately 60,000 bees live in each hive and/or breeding chamber. According to the National Atlas of Bees and Derivatives, the word ''bee'' is the common name for insects belonging to the superfamily Apoidea of the order Hymenoptera (membrane-winged). Currently, there are more than 20,000 species of bees worldwide, classified into nine families, six of which are present in Mexico, with more than 1,800 described species. To raise awareness about the importance of pollinators, the threats they face, and their contribution to sustainable development, the United Nations declares May 20th as World Bee Day. The main objective is to protect bees and other pollinators so they can make a significant contribution to solving problems related to the world's food supply and ending hunger in developing countries.

Dicladispa armigera is a species of leaf beetle from Southeast Asia, often known by its common name: the ''rice hispa''. These beetles are a well-known invasive pest and are responsible for significant crop damage across many countries. The male-to-female ratio is between 1:1.26 and 1:1.46. The high reproductive potential and short generation time are significant contributors to the success of this species. These insects are known to cause significant plant damage, targeting crops such as rice, maize, and other grasses. Young plants are more susceptible to damage by the pests. The reduction of rice hispa populations in areas where crops are grown is desirable to increase crop yield. The two primary methods for population control are biological controls which utilize predators of the pest, and chemical controls which utilize insecticides. In some cases, manual controls may be used. The insect pest is a problem, particularly in Bangladesh. Records show that it can infest large areas and cause yield losses of up to 20%. This photo was taken in a forest at Tehatta, West Bengal, India 25/07/2023.
