Description
- Activities
- The nhbs sampling in each participating state will be divided into two sections, 1) longitudinal sampling of 5 beekeepers, and 2) 14 general survey surveillance samples split into 3 or more sampling trips throughout the year. Because the longitudinal sampling will be conducted twice for each of the 5 beekeepers, each state should have a total of 24 samples at the end of sampling season. Hives sampled for the longitudinal study will also have BEE bread samples taken to be analyzed for pesticides. Education and outreach efforts will be conducted both virtually and in person. Pamphlets and other educational materials will be provided to state residents and visitors, presentations will be made to various groups, and information booths will be staffed at several large gatherings. Deliverables and expected outcomes: the national honey BEE survey data is used to ascertain the scope of parasites, diseases, and pests that may have a negative impact on honey BEE populations in the U.S. This nation-wide survey has become the most comprehensive honey BEE pest and health survey to date, and provides essential disease and pest load base line information. This information provides additional benefit through informing and guiding the direction of honey BEE parasite, disease, and pest research and mitigation recommendations to the US apiculture industry. Intended beneficiary(IES): the farm and nursery industries in DE, the residents, and visitors to delaware, as well as the entire nation.subrecipient activities, if known or specified at the time of award: N/a
