So far, the renewable energy company installed nests in Mazoto, Maroni, Agios Theodoros Larnaca, Alethrico, Alamino, Klaydia, Aradippou, Athienou, Menoyia, Anafotia, Agioi Trimithias, Cheri, Marki, Anglicides, Kivisili, Yeri, Agios Ioannis Malounta, Avgorou, Achna, Xylotympou, Pyla, Trullous, Avdellero and Potami. The coordinates of the nests on maps have been documented and will also be shared with the relevant government agencies for recording and monitoring purposes.<br \/>\nBioland Energy Group plans to extend this initiative by installing 16 more nests in areas earmarked for future park development.<br \/>\nBarn owls, renowned nocturnal hunters, play a vital role in agriculture by preying on rodents that pose significant threats to crops. Through the provision of secure nesting sites, Bioland Energy Group is not only aiding in the recovery of barn owl populations but also facilitating the protection of surrounding farmland over an expansive area.<br \/>\nMoreover, these artificial nests may serve as shelters for other bird species, further enhancing biodiversity and ecological resilience.<br \/>\nBioland Energy Group Ltd is one of the largest and fastest growing companies in the Renewable Energy Sources (RES) sector in Cyprus. It has 67 photovoltaic parks with a capacity of 78 MW connected to the national grid, while providing electricity to business consumers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bioland
