I want to put a few hives on my property to help out with my garden and orchard and I have been wondering lately how worried I should be about the farmer who sprays round up on his crops once or twice during the year. I live on 6 acres with 80+ acre crop fields (corn/soybean) to the north and east. I am thinking I should block them in the hive for a day or two following application just to be safe.
Thanks a bunch y'all are a wonderful resource for new beeks everywhere.
