    Colony Collapse Disorder

    Justification

    Colony collapse disorder is a natural crisis occurring in bee colonies. This occurs when the

    worker bees of the colony suddenly disappear. Researches in the past have concluded that the

    disorder occurs due to biotic factors like Vaorra mites and insect diseases. There are also otherresearches on that cite cell phone radiations and genetically modified crops as the cause of this

    disorder. The scientists have concluded that the disorder occurs due to a number of factors, not just

    one. The colony collapse holds significance because the bees are responsible for the pollination of

    many agricultural crops globally. We are specifically focusing on Florida, USA because the number of

    CCD cases found there are amongst the highest recorded.

    Supporting Data

    In 2010, America lost 34 percent of its honey bees, similar to the years 2007, 2008, and 2009.

    A third of our food comes from flowering plants. 80% of these plants are pollinated by honeybees.

    However, if honeybees die out, it doesnt only affect plants. Animals that eat the plants are also

    affected. Honeybees are a keystone species, at the very center of the food web. If honey bees dieout, the whole system will be affected. Plants that depend on honeybees for pollination may

    become less or even die put. If the plants become less or die out, the animals that depend on these

    plants will have to compete with each other for food and they will also become less or even die out.

    The best solution for treating Colony Collapse Disorder is Wholistic Agriculture CCD kit. Ever

    since CCD has become a threat to bees, scientists have tried various techniques to prevent the

    disease, either by killing fungi, bacteria or virus; none of them have worked well. Wholistic

    Agriculture focuses on countering the root of the problem rather than taking measures against the

    end results. Using the laws and principles of nature, they have developed a deeper understanding of

    the nature and using their knowledge they have created a product which is bound to work. Instead

    of countering fungi, virus or bacteria, they look at creating a healthier environment for bees to thrive.

    The kit comprises of Ultra Field Sprays, Fungus Interruptus, Field Drying Formula, Valerian BufferZone and Bee Calming Hive Spray; the 5 of which work in conjunction to create an environment

    suitable for bee growth. Here is a quick look at few statistics related to the product:

    y It increases yields by anywhere between 30%-500%y Lowers cost by almost 75%y Decreases labour to 25%y Multiplies profits by 200-300%
