Looking at the data that Randy shared,  another thought comes to mind,  can the large increase in production be related to almonds and extra feeds?  I just shipped bees to CA,  not just for funds,  but for the boost it gives the hives so they can make a lot more early honey.

When you look at the info,  that’s about the time frame more and more stated hitting honey,  and trucking them got a bit easier.  Might be neat to overlay that with almond acres/tonnage.

I wonder also if the slow decrease in output could also be related to increased use of fungicides setting back those same hives?  

Just alternate thoughts.

Charles
