THE HEALTHY BEE MOVEMENT
We are researching how to keep Ontario bees healthy.
How will our study work to accomplish this?
We have asked Ontario beekeepers about their 2014 season, including:
- Hive Health and Production
- Bee Yard Management
- Nearby forage
This questionnaire information, along with data we collect about crops, neonicotinoids, weather, and other factors will help develop the fullest picture possible.
Then, with statistical methods, we aim to identify which key factors most affect honey bee health.
