.They spray a lot of crap in this area, aerial applications. I can't do
much about it. Hives seems to be okay despite the sprays.
Grant, the above was the information that I hoped you would answer. This
is the question that the EPA wants to know--is the system working? Can
honey bees and other pollinators survive in areas of the agricultural
application of pesticides?
It sounds as though your colonies are exposed to a variety of crops and
their associated pest control products, yet based upon your honey yields,
your colonies appear to be doing well. It would be of great interest, but
expensive, to track their exposure to each chemical.
