Dear BIP Survey participants,
You might have been wondering when the preliminary results of the 2018-2019 Bee Informed Partnership Colony Loss and Management Survey will be posted.
Well, today is the day. Thanks for your patience!
The “traditional” abstract is now posted on the BIP webpage here, while the Press Release issued by the University of Maryland can be read here.
We want to thank all of you – whether you are a long-term respondent or a new-Bee to the survey – for participating this year. The information you provided is critical to building a long-term data set that we can now use to develop regionally-specific management recommendations.
Please keep your eyes on our national colony loss map and our interactive management portal. In the coming weeks we will be publishing our 2018-2019 state-specific results.
Please take care!
Sincerely,
The Bee Informed Partnership
