The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food announced announced that they arc suspending suspending the Apiculture Inspection Program which has for seven years protected honeybee pollination pollination from mite infestations from Now York and Michigan. U.S. Beekeepers arc experiencing experiencing 50 to 80% losses due to these pests in some areas, and pollination shortages arc becoming becoming evident. The same fate faces Ontario Beekeepers. The Ontario Beekeepers' Association met with O.M.A.F. Minister, Elmer Buchanan. Buchanan. They were told that not only is his government unwilling unwilling to support the O.B.A. Industry Plan, but that the Apiculture Apiculture Inspection Program will not continue. The timing is critical. Work to. finish this year's inspection must begin immediately to be completed in lime to properly assess the situation for next year. A seven year effort of leading edge technology is about to be wasted.
