Description
Why honeybees are overlooked and misunderstood in bushfire planning - this episode investigates the impact of both prescribed burning and out of control bushfires on Australia's honeybee industry. The sector contributes $4.6 billion in value to the nation's cropping industry through pollination services, but does not have a formal seat at the table in fire planning.
