Animals cluster together when cold to stay warm also happen to feel pain from cold. So forcing them to be cold might be a problem. Makes sense. The issue with this is if the researchers wanted actual change they need to explain how this effects the bottom line such as productivity. Otherwise, corpos will not care.
It sounds like at least part of the solution is to stop refrigerating hives, which will save money at least.
I know Jack on this subject but it seems they also do it for the mites. Which probably also impact production.
I wonder how this affects bee survival rate.
If some producers don’t pay attention to bee welfare, they probably care about survival rate.
