Without his bees, the blueberries in Maine would not exist.
This problem is much more serious than we know. Imagine,
a business which hauls bees across the country to rent to
farmers. That's a sign and it ain't good.


bee hauling has been around since post WWII, at least. it may
also be one of the vectors for hive collapse.

one the brighter side, honey bees are not the only type of
bees, nor the only pollenators of food crops.
