Honey Bee National Winter Loss and Management Surveys

The Bee informed Partnership, a joint project among numerous universities and laboratories, is asking you to please participate in the National Winter Loss and Management survey listed below.  Both surveys are open only until 15 April 2013. 

Please click on the link below to take the survey: http://10.selectsurvey.net/beeinformed/TakeSurvey.aspx?SurveyID=BIP2012

You can learn more about the Bee Informed Partnership at beeinformed.org.  We have and continue to post results from our efforts in our Results section, as well as give highlights of the information in our Blog.  We encourage you to visit the site.

We really believe this effort will be able to change our industry by giving beekeepers the tools they need to make informed management decisions. But, for it to work it needs participation – lots of participation. SO please take the survey and pass this email to your beekeeper contacts and encourage them to participate!

The purpose of the Bee Informed Partnership is to use beekeepers' real world experiences to help solve beekeepers' real world problems. We will use the data generated from these two surveys to help you decide which management practices are best for beekeepers like you, who live where you do and have operations similar to yours.

Depending on the number of participants we hope to have the results from this year’s survey broken down by region and should have those results posted within months of the survey close date now that we have built the infrastructure needed to automate report generation. 

Should you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us at askbeeinformed@gmail.com or call us at 443.296.2470.

Thank you,
Karen Rennich
