Good for a research project if you can get funding for it.

no need to translate whole doc.

basically you can fit weight sensors to 100 hives within 25m of central base unit with weather station. This then transmits the data for you to analyse on your PC.

Crazy but does show how seriously the europeans take honey production (and this from country where flatpack hives cost 35-40 euros.

Thank you I think I was being a bit lazy or maybe I should have been paying more attention to my four year old and looked at it properly at a more appropriate time Regards Andrew
