Bees in Europe & Sustainable Honey Production (BEE SHOP)

Honey is among the oldest food products of mankind and beekeeping is deeply rooted in every European culture, which is why quality regulation is strict and numerous European and national regulations control honey quality. Yet in an environment with increasing chemical pollution and the wide use of agrochemicals, honey runs high risks of becoming chemically polluted. This is why the BEE SHOP, a network of nine leading European honeybee research groups in honey quality, pathology, genetics and behaviour was established. This book examines these research teams and their shared common interest of promoting Europe's high honey quality standards.

Introduction; Part 1: The Quality of Honey for Bees & Man; Part 2: The Principal Parasites & Pathogens of Honeybees; Part 3: Beekeeping Without Chemical Treatment?; Publication list of the BEE SHOP network; Appendix: Breeding disease resistant honeybees; Index.
