Bayer beecare

[Jimmy]

I found a fab interactive resource about beekeeping courtesy of Bayer, available here http://beecare.bayer.com/home

Lots of informative video clips if you click through the apple orchard. As well as the glossy PR effort it appears that they're investing heavily in pollinator research both in Europe and in N America.

How wonderfully philanthropic of Bayer Chemicals. I wonder what could have motivated them?

The very outfit that makes neonics! Maybe we too should sue for $400k. Mind you, neonic as an OSR seed dressing (now banned for 2 years) may be safer than an alternative sprayed?

Quite.
But it's a very interesting resource IMHO.
