The Honey Bee Health Coalition has worked throughout 2017 to continue supporting collaborative solutions to help achieve a healthy population of honey bees in the context of productive agricultural systems and thriving ecosystems. As part of these efforts, the Coalition has developed a series of best management practices for soybean growers.

This important initiative is aimed at helping soybean producers — whose crops cover nearly 84 million acres in the United States — take steps to support honey bees, who often visit their fields. Be sure to check out the best management practices on the Coalition’s website.

Beyond soybeans, the Coalition also has been striving to enhance honey bee health through a variety of initiatives, including selecting finalists for its nutrition competition and gathering vital resources around hive management. Thank you for your continued support for the Coalition and its work to promote and enhance bee health.
