Researchers are aiming to work out how far bees will fly from the hive to forage for food, if there are enough food sources nearby. “The underlying assumption of the study is that if hives are ...

The researchers say they are hoping to learn just how much time bees spend outside of their hives foraging for food. The researchers say the QR codes are smaller than your pinky fingernail.

more precise understanding of bee foraging range, the researchers said. Honey bees communicate where the food sources are to other bees in the colony with a physical behavior called the “waggle ...

“These losses are severe, broad, and may impact food security through inadequate pollination services. Survey results are ...

(CNN) — New insights into bee movements and life cycles have been uncovered after researchers tracked the insects using tiny QR codes glued onto their backs. By recording when bees entered and ...
