This interests me not only because I have been thinking of trying my hand at keeping bees.As a still fledgling gardener I know the importance of the critters.
Bee Death Reversal There is no possible way for me to know what is causing this so what I need is people with the expertise and the wherewithal to try and find the solution.That pesky division of labor thing pops it's head up again.
But who to trust that's the question.I would like to think the scientists would be the ones but they are only human too.We have all seen what happens when advocacy parades as science so I'm torn here.
Without pesticides,herbicides GMO crops a lot of people would be starving right now.So theres that.
Personally I try and grow only heirloom because I want to have the ability to generate my own seeds.
Where will you get hybrids in a grid down scenario?
I have also tried to be organic as possible but lets be real it don't work all that great unless you can plant way more than you'll ever need to make up for what the pests destroy.Maybe I'm doing it wrong a distinct possibility:)
Damn I didn't mean to ramble on like that.My thought was I need the best possible facts before jumping at any solutions and leave the personal feelings at the door.Is that too much to ask?
Or am I being too unnuanced in the age of nuance and fudging of facts.Give it to me straight I'm a big boy.
I wonder what my favorite tubes beekeeper Pioneer Preppy has to say about this subject.
