Assam Tribune | Sobhapati Samom | Imphal, March 14

“We have reports of largescale dying of honeybees in the valley and hills of the State,” said Manipur Beekeepers’ Federation (MBF) president S Nilakamal. “We believe the dying of bees is linked to loss of habitat, disease and use of pesticide and insecticide in farms.” The loss of honeybees was reported mostly in Imphal East, Imphal West, Bishnupur and Senapati districts.
