Abstract:Honey bees are the most important managed insect pollinators in the US and Canadian crop systems. However, the annual mortality of colonies in the past 15 years has been consistently higher than historical records.

Here, the American Association of Professional Apiculturists (AAPA) and the Canadian Associat… Show more
