CATCH THE BUZZ
Take the survey. Get Counted.
Dear Beekeeper:
The Apiary Inspectors of America and the USDA-ARS Beltsville Bee Research Laboratory are seeking your help in tabulating the winter losses that occurred over the winter of 2009-2010. This continues the AIA/USDA survey efforts from the past 3 years which has been important in quantifying the losses of honey bees for government, media, and researchers.
This year’s survey is faster, easier and does not require your time on the phone. It is all web based and automatic, just fill and click.
Please take a few moments to fill out our winter loss survey at:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/beeloss0910
This survey will be conducted until April 16th, 2010.
We would also appreciate it if you would forward this email to other beekeepers. The more responses the better.
If you have any questions or concerns please email beeloss@gmail.com., or Honeybee.Survey@aphis.usda.gov
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
