These losses mark the second-highest loss rate the survey has recorded since it began in 2006 (6.1 percentage points higher than the average annual loss rate of 39.4%). The survey results highlight the continuing high rates of honey bee colony turnover. The high loss rate was driven by both elevated summer and winter losses this year, with no clear progression toward improvement for beekeepers and their colonies.

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, ButcherBox, and Comvita.As you lose muscle, you lose mitochondria and your metabolism slows down.

Comvita is much loved for its honey products - who doesn't love bees and their fluffy bums. But a renewed focus on sustainability has seen the company present a robust strategic plan based on circular economy thinking. The plan, called Harmony, is a comprehensive relook at the entire operation and arrives at a time of restructuring and repositioning the company after a few tough years. To explain the thinking behind the plan, Vincent met with Holly Brown, chief transformation officer, and Heather Johnston head of safety and sustainability. thisclimatebusiness.comhttps://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=ffa0aa9007e192e4d0111b8d2d7225f2188c1a0a3a9bac5d320f5863a6fcb401JmltdHM9MTY0ODY4NjczOCZpZ3VpZD1lY2FlNWVkYi01MWU2LTQ0OGItOWE1Ni0yNmY3OGMyMmQ3YzQmaW5zaWQ9NTIxMA&ptn=3&fclid=0523abe7-b08a-11ec-a2ee-fa796c471801&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuY29tdml0YS5jby5uei8_bXNjbGtpZD0wNTIzYWJlN2IwOGExMWVjYTJlZWZhNzk2YzQ3MTgwMQ&ntb=1 (Comvita - Mānuka Honey, Olive Leaf & Propolis | Comvita™ NZ)
