š Commercial beekeeping is more complex than it seems. In the latest episode of Between the Rows, BeeHero co-founder Itai Kanot sat down with Chris Hiatt, large-scale commercial beekeeper, almond grower, and former President of the American Honey Producers Association, right at the tail end of almond pollination season in California. Topics covered: š¦ļø How this season's weather timing actually impacted bloom & bee activity š° The real cost of beekeeping and the rising operational risk behind it ā ļø Why colonies are weaker than they used to be and what's driving the losses š·ļø Why the Honey Transparency Act is critical to protecting U.S. beekeepers and ensuring consumers know exactly where their honey comes from Chris runs bees across multiple states and manages his family's almond orchards, so he sees both sides of the pollination equation in a way very few people can. If you're a grower, a beekeeper, or anyone connected to California almonds, this one is worth your time!
