Discover how Roquette supports wetland and biodiversity preservation in Lianyungang, China, with field visits, ecological research, and local collaborations.

Roquette employees hold a blue “Preserve the planet” banner during a birdwatching field visit in wetlands near Lianyungang, China.

In December of 2025, Roquette in China worked with Lianyungang Release, the Lianyungang Ecological Environment Bureau, and local experts to strengthen awareness and advance biodiversity conservation. The Roquette teams embarked on two immersive field visits to a scenic river estuary, lake, and tidal flats as important habitats on the East Asian-Australasian Flyway that support migratory birds.

Field visits and ecological research support

With forestry professionals and birdwatchers, Roquette colleagues observed diverse species including pied avocets, gulls, ducks, egrets, geese, and red-crowned cranes, while learning how targeted restoration efforts and responsible observation are bringing rare species back and nurturing biodiversity.

At the city’s Wildlife Education Center, the participants deepened their understanding of wetland ecosystems and conservation. Roquette also donated specialized equipment to the local forestry team to help monitor bird activity and support ecological research for preservation efforts.

The value of biodiversity conservation

Seeing the birds in the wetlands was personally impactful. 

 

It helped us understand in a very tangible way why protecting habitats is so important. The earth is a home we share with all living creatures.

Experiences like these highlight the value of collaboration and hands-on learning to preserve the planet, which is part of Roquette's commitment to sustainability and local community engagement initiatives. Every respectful observation of nature and every practical contribution is a way to build a better future together: by connecting with nature, supporting local conservation, and promoting responsible environmental stewardship.
