Beltsville Bee Lab to Disappear!

We just received a video from the esteemed Agriculture Secretary that USDA is being reorganized, and the Beltsville Bee Lab will be closed, employees will be reduced and who knows where Honey Bee Research will go.

This is what 'WE" will be losing, https://www.ars.usda.gov/northeast-area/beltsville-md-barc/beltsville-agricultural-research-center/bee-research-laboratory/

Then think of all the researchers who have contributed to us for decades, and the young researchers who may or may not be able move on to other opportunities, and the lab, equipment, facilities, research funding and lots lost momentum.

This is just wrong for our incredibly valuable industry that we are forgotten.

Take time to listen to Brooke Rollins the United States Secretary of Agriculture:
