130 bee colonies lost: Northern Ireland’s better winter still took a heavy toll
Survey participants lost 130 of 570 honey bee colonies over winter 2025/26. Losses fell, but conflicting percentages and uncertain long-term trends temper the improvement.
สิ่งที่เราทราบในตอนแรก
- 130 honey bee colonies were lost in a single winter among the Northern Ireland beekeepers who answered AFBI’s latest husbandry survey. They had started winter 2025/26 with 570 living colonies: roughly one colony in four did not make it through. That is an improvement on the previous winter, but still a substantial loss—not evidence, on its own, of a recovery.
