This might bee of interest to you.
Thank you, Red. It is interesting, but I suspect that these studies may be targeting pesticides with an agenda. We use some of the brand names listed on our crops, as do many other farmers, and there has been colony collapses anywhere in NE Louisiana. I can’t speak for other areas, but I think we would have heard about it if keepers were losing hives. I read several bee fora, and stay in touch with the state beekeepers’ organizations.
