Howdy All,
Here is a new MSN article about the lack of bees in the build up to the almond blooms this year.
Though I disagree with the article in that CCD is the total cause for the decline in bees this year. I do agree that once all the reports are in we will have a record year in bee deaths! What is a bit scary is that, as the article highlights (Bee decline VS Almond production) the two projections are at odds. Completely unsustainable!
A crazy fact: "California's orchards provide about 80 percent of the global almond supply."
Cheers,
Marty Hanks
