DISCLAIMER
Many blogs are created from combining the related content from the research listed in the “Referenced Material” sections of each blog.  My attempt with these blogs is to provide an organized and consumable ‘abstract’ of the listed studies and make it available to those not in academia. These are not my findings but I do feel it’s important to raise the viewers’ awareness of this significant research.  All credit is given to these studies and researchers who are helping beekeepers better understand how we can improve our management practices.
