> James Fisher :”The basic truth to remember is that the BIP data is a self-reported survey.  Also, one cannot manage that which they do not measure.”

If every beekeeper filled out the survey,  results would be much different, and maybe an additional survey of just commercial migratory beekeepers would be informative too,  as Peter was saying regarding the moving of hives in the winter.
