Another Year of Disappearing Honey Bees

The 2008 calendar shows that another source has arrived in North America and signs of the new season are everywhere. The flowers have appeared on trees, heralding the arrival of new leaves. Daylight has increased and the hot sun act as harbingers of the emergence of flowering plants, which will soon begin their summer cycle of growth. Nurseries and home improvement stores like Home Depot and Loews are selling plants, rakes, shovels, mulch and fertilizer. Indeed, the familiar signs of spring are everywhere. However, this year there is a real problem in the wild enthusiasm of agriculture for the next crop year beginning. This is a problem, first identified in 2006. The problem is the disappearance of the bee. Once again, there is little progress in the report of the research in this mystery about the bee honey as Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). CCD occurs when all adult bees disappear from the booty, leaving the honey and pollen back. Few, if any, dead bees are found around the hive. Between 50 and 90% of commercial bees (Apis mellifera) colonies in the United States have been affected by CCD, and the problem is that it is difficult for pollination for U.S. commercial beekeepers to plants. Approximately one fourth of the Beekeeping surgeries were performed by the CCD during the winter of 2006-2007 alone affected. It is up to 70% of bees have simply disappeared in the United States believes Colony Collapse Disorder. The problem continued during the winter of 2007-2008. In addition to the persistent problem of the CCD, the view that news programs often significant regional problems with the death of bees this spring in the United States. In Hawaii, a microscopic mite is devastating Oahu honey bee population and affect the long term could destroy much of the Island’s agriculture. Western Washington has a developing agricultural crisis as the disappearance of bees from a new pathogen called Nosema cerana. This fungus attacks the bee gut, making it impossible to starve the food and the bee to complete the process. In general, the various problems are disappearing and dying bees quickly under a toll on the entire beekeeping industry United States. It was reported that the number of farmers produce more than 6,000 pounds of honey per year from 2054 has decreased in 2005 (started last year holder of colony collapse) to about 1,100 this year. Internationally, the lack of a sufficient number of bees is responsible for any problems this spring in the pollination of blueberries in Canada. The Fraser Valley produces about one fifth of blueberries in the world, but no longer sufficient numbers of pollinating bees is its support for blueberries, honey and bees for pollination is now in place. In England and Wales has announced proposals to protect the bees have been posted by the government. However, beekeepers from a lack of research funding and the slow government response, since the number of bees continue to complain of falling. It is estimated that nearly half the population of 50 billion bees died in Italy last year. The mortality rate of bees will have a significant impact on the 25 million honey industry of the country (which could, at least 50% in 2008 Batch) and wreak havoc on fruit crops. The epidemic of bees in the world has also hit Germany, France, Great Britain, Brazil and Australia. The rising cost of energy in food production and transportation has already led to a world where inflation of food prices by 45 percent over the last nine months. Worldwide, there is a serious shortage of rice, wheat and maize. Rising food costs recently responsible for deadly clashes in Egypt, Haiti and several African states. However, if the bee population continues to decline, events in the world of higher prices and shortages of food have barely begun. The pollination of bees is crucial for agriculture and global food supply. Without the honeybee, the prices of vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs and dairy products will all spiral much higher. The disappearance of bees is a threat to the ice cream upscale as well. Haagen-Dazs (owned by General Mills) said bees are responsible for 40% of the 60 flavors of strawberry at the bottom, pecans and grilled banana split. “The company is launching a new version this spring, like bees to honey with vanilla to educate consumers about the problem. Proceeds from the sale of ice will research funding CCD. The impact on our diet and lifestyle are enormous, but the government is limited in response to the food crisis was developing, and slow. The disappearance of bees issue is not addressed in any debate or the president in a campaign forum. In fact, our two major political parties are silent on the issue. I hope the American politicians during the election campaign in the United States 2008 presidential election as byproducts Haagen Daz. The truth is that Vanilla Honey Bee ice cream will the only way for candidates on a serious, we can develop, crisis in agriculture. A world without bees pollinating honey adequate food crisis is an economic impact, national and international. Indeed, it is one of the years without a solution to the problem of disappearing bees.
