Bee killing honeybees
Beekeepers use herbicides, fungicides and insecticides in around beehives. Because of their live threat that often faces to the bees they have no choice to use this two kind of chemicals from attacking of other insects. Honeybees increasingly suffer from bee diseases and parasites, forcing their keepers to fight using their powerful chemicals, but in modern beekeeping practices put severe stress on honeybees, possibly this cause the bee have weakened resistance to diseases and parasites. The treatment on modern beekeeping such as unnatural feed, migratory beekeeping, artificial insemination, and chemical treatments.
Naturally honeybees just eat of nectars and pollens, these food collect from certain kind of Bloom for certain bees. This natural food will give vital nutrients that optimize the health of these tiny insects. But currently beekeeper commonly feed their honeybees by artificial syrups and patties that form a high fructose corn syrup (HFC). The quality of these artificial syrup will very different with natural food from nectar and pollen and worse again about 85% of all corn grown in U.S. is genetically modified, so what its mean?
The crops product that modify genetically will produce food that resist to insect, but bees are insect too. There are no investigation yet how honeybees will react to this genetically feed. In addition bees also forage for pollen and nectar on GM crops, adding to their exposure. So current honey product will have bad honey quality compare with natural honey that resulted from forest.
