Overcoming the Threats to Honeybees

Introduction Did you know that one of the three foods eaten all over the world relies on pollinators, especially bees, to make the harvest successful. These small and hard insects actually let us reach many of our favorite foods at our table. In addition, bees are known to be the most important insect / pollinator who moves pollen between flowers and plants, and the term "pollination" is used to describe the services of plants offering pollination crops of bees . However, when group collapse is increasing year by year (CCD: decreased bees), bees and other pollinators have dramatically decreased throughout the United States, and all

Agricultural production of most flowering edible crops depends on pollination services offered by bees (Apis mellifera) (1). In addition, bee pollination is also essential for maintaining the ecological and genetic diversity of wild plants (2). But over the past two decades, in North America and Europe, the death rate of colonies in winter bees has increased, the number of colonies on honey has decreased, and correctly providing pollination services and food security is a serious threat (3-5). Bees suffer habitat loss, strengthen agricultural management, and contain numerous viruses that disintegrate pesticides, parasites and pathogens, eg bee colonies (6)

The classic CCD may not be a threat as much, but four of malnutrition, pesticides, pathogens, and parasites are what Cox Foster said, now at the US Department of Agriculture pollination research in Logan, Utah It is done. Pollination. Although the chances of extinction of bees is low, these threats to beekeepers increase pollination costs, which can affect food prices.

For most people, bees may become annoying insects with a strong tingling sensation. But the bees are not just another insect. Bees can be said to be the most important part of our food crop development. About 90% of our edible crops depend on bee pollination, our food system, agricultural development and diet depend on the work and happiness of these squeaky insects. - Disappointment brought fashion and unfortunate settlers. In order to help solve the dark mood, Columbus led to exploration and expedition to the island. In the expedition, they went to the Cibao Mountains where there was rumor about the massive discovery of gold. He was unable to find too many gold coins on the island and set up a fortress for future adventure. When he returned to Risa Bela, he found a colony in a very bad state.
