What is happening to our country’s honeybee population?

Honeybee Deaths Surge in US   

Honeybees have faced a staggering population decline in the US, with colony losses at 62% over the winter.

Entomologists at Washington State University forecast that total honeybee losses this year could reach up to 70%.

Usually beekeepers would only lose 10 to 20% of their colonies over the winter.

Climate change, weed killing and urban sprawl are factors killing the bees, which are crucial to our food production.
