Colony Collapse Disorder (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783639716313)

With a third of human food coming directly and indirectly from honeybee pollination, colony collapse disorder (CCD) will have significant economic, ecological, and social impacts if further colony losses are not prevented. CCD is a complex problem that results from both natural and anthropogenic causes. This book will discuss the various factors that have been researched as possible causes for colony loss as well as explore the long-term effects that this decline could have. The analysis is helpful for anybody interested in protecting the species that provides access to a healthy livelihood for humans.
