Question 10825 — overseas

Summary

Mr. Max Mathiasin draws the attention of the Minister of Agriculture and Food to the situation of beekeepers in Guadeloupe following the passage of hurricanes Irma and Maria in September 2017. These natural disasters destroyed a large number of hives, bee colonies, honey stocks and honey plants. The excess mortality of bees caused by certain pesticides is an additional obstacle to reconstitution livestock. Knowing that 95% of honey producers in the Guadeloupean archipelago operate fewer than 50 hives, most of them see the profitability of their operations seriously compromised. Given the essential role of bees in sustainable agriculture, he asks what measures are planned to help beekeepers in overseas departments and regions.
