Hi,
last May I asked members to fill in a survey, primarily to see how many
colonies had perished over that winter, and incidentally gathering other
information.
Here are the results. My apologies for taking 9 months to do my homework. I
learned some lessons about how _not_ to structure surveys for rapid analysis!
Hopefully the results will fill in some gaps in your bee lore, make you Think
and stimulate debate. Unlike most beekeeping opinions, these results are
based on hard data across a range of apiaries / bees / conditions in our
area, not anecdotal evidence and confirmation bias. Please shout out if you
think I got something wrong but remember these are the results for_ last_
winter, not the one we're going through now.
I may do another survey around April / May this year. Or not.
Paul
