MSBA to address honey bee losses

The Missouri State Beekeepers Association (MSBA) is making proactive efforts to combat this year’s honey bee colony losses experienced across the state, emphasizing the critical impact on Missouri’s agricultural sector.

In response to these challenges, the MSBA will host an educational conference, MO Bee Day 2025, on Saturday, June 21, at Darr Agricultural Center in Springfield.

Honey bees are vital pollinators, essential to producing a vast array of crops, including fruits, vegetables, and nuts, contributing billions annually to the national agricultural economy.
