Hi everyone!
Well, just read this article and it was kinda heart breaking.
http://www.foxnews.com/science/2018...lame-for-honey-bee-deaths-study-suggests.html
https://news.utexas.edu/2018/09/24/common-weed-killer-linked-to-bee-deaths
http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2018/09/18/1803880115
The research originated from University of Texas and I have a high respect for them. Article was originally published in
the National Academy of Sciences.
We live on a ranch/farm and often use glyphosate out of necessity. We also just experienced a full 30% loss of our bees this summer.
Ok, my million dollar question:
I would like to know how we can determine if this article is based upon genuine scientific research and data.
How can we know if the facts presented in this article are for real and based upon truth?
Dang, UoT and PNAS appear to be fairly BIG NAMES in releasing accurate scientific research and data...
After reading the article, I am concerned it may be spot on and perhaps we need to stop using glyphosate at our ranch and especially near our honey bee yards [we spray under our honeybee stands 2-3 times per year].
Thanks,
Soar
