with all due respects to Bob I only see and hear "claims" with no hard data to back it up when speaking SPECIFICALLY about CORN treatments (not Imid in general) . I don't know about others but my bees health and production are quite variable from year to year so without a rigid study or corn pollen chem analysis I don't see how we can say we have passed the bar of "I have a hunch" versus "I have some data" . Thats why I was surprised to see the strong statement in Kim's blog about corn seed treatments. ******************************************************* * Search the BEE-L archives at: * * http://listserv.albany.edu:8080/cgi-bin/wa?S1=bee-l * *******************************************************
