  • Summary

  • Beekeeping Today Podcast Shorts brings you a quick dive into the latest buzz in beekeeping. In this first special episode, we welcome Dr. Humberto Boncristiani of Inside The Hive TV to discuss the alarming commercial colony losses reported this season. With beekeepers across the country facing unexpected die-offs, Humberto shares insights from his investigations, his conversations with industry experts like Blake Shook, and what beekeepers should watch for as the situation unfolds. Is this Colony Collapse Disorder all over again? What role might weather, pathogens, and management practices play? Humberto unpacks the factors contributing to these losses and offers a critical reminder: in times of crisis, beekeepers must seek reliable information, avoid knee-jerk reactions, and keep collecting data. Tune in for a timely and candid discussion about what’s happening in the field, the challenges of understanding large-scale colony losses, and how beekeepers can stay informed.
