The Secret Weapon That Could Help Save Bees

In California, almond farmers rely on bees for pollination, which is economically significant. However, bee health is threatened by parasites, diseases, and pesticides, leading to a decline in bee populations.

Beekeepers are adapting hive designs to encourage propolis use, helping maintain healthy bee populations and ensuring crop pollination.
