The effect of pesticides on bees is a hot topic of discussion with the current focus on neonicotinoids and the recent restrictions imposed on its use. Interest in these issues is likely to continue for the foreseeable future with the drive for increased agricultural production. This book will address the most up-to-date information and aims to present a balanced perspective of this much-debated topic with contributors from academia, industry and government. Coverage of issues related to toxicity, routes of exposure and effects of pesticides on bees, the regulatory context and the potential for the use of population models to interpret impacts at the colony level will be provided by key experts in the field who are both active in research and understand the regulatory use of the data. This book will be a valuable resource for agricultural and environmental scientists in academia and industry, toxicologists and those involved in pesticide regulation.
