Comment on Australia abandons effort to eradicate varroa mite after 14,000 bee hives destroyed
just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 year agoIt’s good to know it’s not the end of the world. I get the sense Australian farmers and the industry are so used to having far fewer pests and diseases than overseas (thanks to really good biosecurity) that it might really cost them to adapt, and those costs will be passed onto the consumer of course…
Definitely good for the native ecosystem, I agree, sadly of little concern or value to most in times of economic pressure.
