[QUOTE="yellow belly, post: 3349870, member: 305"] when the bees main contact is from crops with seed dressing in august when they forage in the following summer what is the evidence bees do not forage in wheat or rape crops in the autumn they fly over them at 2 m high and visit some trees and heather my local bee farmer has never seen a problem with seed dressings where the rate is very low and degraded by the spring his biggest problem in the future will be reduced areas of nector producing crops which will concentrate the bees and lead to over crowding of nector crops and spread of bee diseases overstocking is a problem for bees as with any livestock it is only basic husbandry which we learnt before going to ag college [/QUOTE]
