Evaluating the Impact of Commonly Used Pesticides on Honeybees () in North Gonder of Amhara Region, Ethiopia.

Global honeybee losses and colony decline are becoming continuous threat to the apicultural industry, as well as, for food security and environmental stability. Although the putative causes are still unclear, extensive exposure of bees to pesticides could be the possible factor for worldwide colony losses. This study was aimed at evaluating the impact of nine commonly used pesticide incidents on adult worker honeybees () under the laboratory condition, in North Gonder of Amhara region, Ethiopia.

Physico-chemical characteristics of honey produced by stingless bees () from West Showa zone of Oromia Region, Ethiopia.

The study was investigated to characterize the physico-chemical properties of honey produced from stingless bees () in Oromia Region of Ethiopia. Honey samples were collected from underground soils through an excavation of natural nests from four representative districts (Wolmera, Jeldu, Toke Kutaye and Chalyia). About 120 honey samples (0.
