"However, it does point to a growing industry."
Jerry, in my opinion, there is no opportunity for "growth" where the resource(s) are shrinking. And that is our "industry" today. Maybe there are a few places left where beekeepers and their bees can thrive, but such places are crowded....or becoming crowded, as in my area. Wild places are declining, and with them, the best habitats for bees also decline.
