This hits me close to home. I lost both of my hives last year. The only thing that I can correlate to the die off was the spraying of a neighbor's cotton fields. This has happened twice in the last four years.
The loss has reduced the yield of my garden and fruit and nut trees by more than half.
Survey: More than 40 percent of bee hives died in past year
