He also left out a bowl of cherry jam as a control.Over the course of four months, the cunning beekeeper got an unbiased rating of his honey.The one the bears got a taste for was Anzer honey which can sell for up to $300 USD a kilo.

  • 'Like sending bees to war': the deadly truth behind your almond milk obsession. Bees are essential to the functioning of America’s titanic almond industry – and billions are dying in the process.

    'Like sending bees to war': the deadly truth behind your almond milk obsession. Bees are essential to the functioning of America’s titanic almond industry – and billions are dying in the process.
    'Like sending bees to war': the deadly truth behind your almond milk obsession. Bees are essential to the functioning of America’s titanic almond industry – and billions are dying in the process. A recent survey of commercial beekeepers showed that 50 billion bees – more than seven times the world’s human population – were wiped out in a few months during winter 2018-19. This is more than one-third of commercial US bee colonies, the highest number since the annual survey started in the mid-2000s.

    Beekeepers attributed the high mortality rate to pesticide exposure, diseases from parasites and habitat loss. However, environmentalists and organic beekeepers maintain that the real culprit is something more systemic: America’s reliance on industrial agriculture methods, especially those used by the almond industry, which demands a large-scale mechanization of one of nature’s most delicate natural processes. Pictured: Beekeeper Adam Arp works their hives outside Rye, Arizona on May 8, 2019.

    'Like sending bees to war': the deadly truth behind your almond milk obsession. Bees are essential to the functioning of America’s titanic almond industry – and billions are dying in the process. A recent survey of commercial beekeepers showed that 50 billion bees – more than seven times the world’s human population – were wiped out in a few months during winter 2018-19. This is more than one-third of commercial US bee colonies, the highest number since the annual survey started in the mid-2000s.

    Beekeepers attributed the high mortality rate to pesticide exposure, diseases from parasites and habitat loss. However, environmentalists and organic beekeepers maintain that the real culprit is something more systemic: America’s reliance on industrial agriculture methods, especially those used by the almond industry, which demands a large-scale mechanization of one of nature’s most delicate natural processes.

    Keen beekeeper George Smallwood's eco friendly shed in South Yorkshire boasts a spiral staircase made from scaffold tube and wooden boards to the roof, where he has beehives and a vegetable garden. It is an entry for woodcare brand Cuprinol's 2018 Shed of the Year competition.
