Issue
Honey bees have throughout history been a keystone
species, pollinating an estimated 70% of all plants and
underpinning some 30% of the global food supply.

Because the viability of beehives is a critical predictor of the


planets future health and agricultural sustainability, reports of a
precipitous decline in the number of colonies around the world
have stirred considerable alarm.

No more Bees, No more pollination, No more Plants, No more


Animals, No more Man
-Karl Von Frish: Nobel Prize in Physiology (Bee Dance)-

Objective
Developing a unique platform through which the
Cattleman able to monitor, collect and analyze activity
within the colonies unobtrusively and on a unique scale,
anytime in any weather.
