Parasites of the Honeybee
Parasites of the Honeybee

The greatest value of honeybees is in their service as pollinators and this far outweighs their value as producers of honey or honeybee products. In Ireland, the use of honeybees for the pollination of commercial crops is limited and though they facilitate in the pollination of many plants in the countryside; they are kept primarily for honey production. Apiary hygiene and early identification of pests and diseases is crucial in achieving this goal. This publication endeavors to assist beekeepers in detecting, monitoring and treating when possible these diseases in their colonies, thereby improving the general health of bee stocks and subsequently maximizing honey yields.

National Farm Survey Report 2006

The National Farm Survey is designed to collect and analyse information relating to farming activities as its primary objective. Information and data relating to other activities by the household are considered secondary and as such where this information is presented it should be interpreted with caution. For 2006 there are 1159 farms included in the analysis, representing 113,100 farms nationally. The population is based on the CSO 2005 Farm Structures Survey with farm typology based on the 2002 Standard Gross Margins (SGM).
