Description
- Activities
- The 2026 national honey BEE pests and diseases survey 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 should be conducted twice for each of the 5 selected beekeepers per state, each state should have a total of 24 samples at the end of the sampling season. In collaboration with washington state department of agriculture (WSDA), the molecular samples will be divided, with university of maryland (UMD) and WSDA analyzing states based on their geographical location. Microscopic techniques will be used to determine vairimorpha SPP., levels. Deliverables and expected outcomes: results from these samples will be stored in a database facilitated by UMD, who in collaboration with WSDA, will provide reports to the state plant health director, state plant regulatory official, state survey coordinator, state apiary specialist, and the beekeeper(S) who provided the sample. Beekeepers receiving these reports will be able to make data informed management decisions. Intended beneficiary(IES): commercial BEE keepers of kentucky, agricultural producers of kentucky that rely on natural pollinators, and citizens of kentucky.
