> Millions of colonies imported from outside of North America - is this
accurate?
Not millions of colonies had to be imported, millions of colonies are
leased by farmers. And again, that number is misleading. Not a million
colonies are leased at one time, colonies leased for apples, can also be
leased for stone fruits at a different time, and the same hives can
later be leased for brambles, and then leased again for curcubits. Add
up the number of colonies leased for multiple crops and the sum can
total over a million.
