Bee keepers interview
We asked several bee keepers across France who worked between 5 and 45 years and carry between 5 and more than 400 beehives.
More than 59% of the bee keepers are concerned by the phenomenon of colony collapse disorder.
69% of them have no prevention system and 22% of them are not satisfied by their prevention system.
We then asked them if our detection system may be useful to detect pesticides, pathogens or parasites and heavy metals. Most of them answered yes.
As you can see in the following figure, more than 80% of bee keepers interviewed are interested by our system.
We also asked what kind of modifications we can do to our system. We summarized the most interesting ideas:
- - stop phytosanitary products
- - stop contamination by virus and parasites
- - create a test to evaluate bees’ stress
Bee keepers were asked about the frequency they could use the system, most of them could use it every month or more specifically when from a season to another.
To conclude, bee keepers found this project interesting but another factor seems to be forgotten: some bee keepers have a lack of knowledge concerning the phenomenon.
Researchers interview
This form will allowed us to assess the interest that can arouse our project and its usefulness.
Researchers mostly belong to research team on bees’ pathology, agronomy, chemistry, environment and life science.
For all of them, their research project involved bees.
About the Bee subtilis Project, we asked if the parameters we choose to detect are usefull. Here are the results:
We wondered if there is other parameters we could use in our detection system.
Several answers were proposed:
- - food availability
- - presence of virus or parasites (Nosema for instance)
- - heat stress
We asked if researchers may use this test in their research project:
33% of them said they could use it one time a month
Additional comments:
This test, if scientifically validated could be very interesting as a control of health state of the colonies.
