Latest News Winter Survival Survey shows Higher Losses winter 2019 1 July 2020 The latest survey from the British Beekeepers Association (BBKA) shows higher losses of 17.3% of colonies compared to last year when losses were 9%. But the losses are under the average measured across all the surveys we have carried out so far which is 18.2%. Thank you to everyone who took part in the survey. We had around 2,600 replies online which is 10% of our membership. The highest survival rate was in the South West ( 10.2% losses) and the worst was the South East ( 21.7% losses). You can find more information in the latest edition of BBKA News which is available in the Members Area of the website: https://bbkanews.com/issues The survey, and results of all the questions, will be placed on our website later. -ends- Manage Cookie Preferences
