Certainly, bees play a very important role for many of our crops.
Very often when issues like bee health come up, we tend to look for a scapegoat. We look for one issue that is going to solve the problems. I can assure you that if we banned the neonicotinoids, that's not going to solve the problems. There are bigger and other issues we have to work out and that we have to consider.
With the growth in the industry, we're ending up moving bee colonies around the country on an ongoing basis and very often over long distances. Any time you move a living organism, it has a significant impact. The smaller the animal, the more impact it has. When we travel from here to Europe, we very often go through jet lag. Bee health is impacted by that same type of movement.
We need to ensure that we fully understand the issue and then continue to adopt the best management practices to ensure that we can maintain good bee health.
