Based on the perspective of landscape planning, we aim to create a symbiotic agricultural system, integrating bees and forests in Campeche. Based on the land use analysis, we identified various land-use modes according to the degree of forest fragmentation. Therefore, we introduced intensive agriculture, new cooperative agriculture and ecological forest beekeeping, involving a long-term, complex process with specific strategies. We encourage Mennonites and local beekeepers to work together towards a more sustainable future.
