Another group of beekeepers done with their training! Well done, everyone! 👏

The first Pilot Batch of Wax Foundation Sheets have rolled off the factory!!

We're still tweaking settings here and there and managing the heat with it being 36 degrees Celsius outside!

The Wax Foundation Sheet Factory is operating, with our own production for now, while we catch up on back orders for wax brood sheets for our customers.

IS food security eyeballing the wrong vector? Yield...☢

It's usually that food security and how much food is available for the population is the major risk factor. I disagree. It is a factor. However, there is something amiss.

The food most of us in the west are getting is not the same anymore. Moreover, a tomato today is worth about 50% of your grandparent's tomatoes in terms of vitamin C and B1 as well as 26% less Calcium. It's like not only have we had monetary inflation since 1971, but we've also had nutrient inflation.

There's a well documented French Record from back in the late 5os to early 70s where nutrient values were tested and recorded for about 60-odd vegetables. The same research in the 2000s showed between 20-65% DECLINE in nutrient values when compared to the older fruits and vegetables.

So, think vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, B, potassium and so on having drastically dropped.

Nutrient inflation! What caused this?

A combination of soil and especially, the hybridisation of breeding and seed stock. Hybrids and cultivating specific strains aimed at looking better, appearing more uniform in size and taking longer to waste on shelves. "For the best of the consumer" they said. Meanwhile, the plate of food you ate trying to keep to the food pyramid actually needed at least two - not one!

When using honeybees, bumblebees and flies when endemic, for pollination these vectors tend to improve, not decline naturally.
