A new web-based initiative between the BBKA, the National Farmers Union & the Crop Protection Association to enable beekeepers to be alerted of crop spraying activities in their area. It's currently in the pilot stage in Hertfordshire but you can register your interest now.
As the bad weather seems to have now subsided many are left with the task of clearing up, assessing the damage and facing the challenge of moving forward to rebuild their lives; while others are still living in the chaos. The BBKA is interested to learn how many of our members have been affected so that we can if possible pull together to help those reinstate equipment and bees for those who have suffered from the hurricane force winds and flooding.
All the Sussex Divisions offer education for beginners and experienced beekeepers. This education takes the form of practical demonstrations, theory lessons and mentoring all aimed to improve the confidence and skills of our members. In addition, the British Beekeeping Association provides an Education Framework with practical assessments and examinations.
Populations of bees and other insect pollinators have fallen dramatically in recent years. The reasons for these declines are complex and wide ranging, but there is little doubt that pesticides are playing a key part. PAN UK has launched this website to cut through the confusion and provide an up-to date and balanced explanation of the role of pesticides in pollinator declines.
There is intense public interest and support for the honey bee, and an enduring fascination with the art of beekeeping and the hidden world within the hive, so BBKA has come up with an exciting new idea to raise much needed funds to cope with this interest - an 'Adopt a Beehive' scheme, with the help and sponsorship of Saga.
