Bees are crucial to our primary sector, with a role far beyond honey production. New Zealand's dependence on horticulture and agriculture means we may be more dependent on pollination from the honey bee than any other nation on earth. Bee Week runs from 26-30 July and will highlight the value and opportunities of bees and beekeeping in New Zealand.
Bee Week is supported by the National Beekeepers' Association of New Zealand (NBA) and Federated Farmers Bees.
