One problem are that farms are only growing one type of crop, but bees need balanced diets to stay healthy (monocultured farms). Another problem is that a pesticide called neonicotinoids that are sprayed on crops to kill bugs that eat them, but mess up the bee's navigation to get back to their hive. If they can't find their hive, they die. The solution is that farms grow different types of crops and don't spray the crops with pesticides.

One problem is that farmers are spraying pesticides bad for bees on the crops. and that only 1 type of plant is being grown and bees need more that 1 plant to live a balanced diet. One souloution is to to grow a different crop every month so bees still get every nutrients. Another souloution is to only spray the pesticides on the crops that bees do not get nutrients from,so that the bees don't go to that plant and don't get sick Another souloution is to make a formula that is healthy for bees but will still kill the pests in crops .

Wow, I didn't know that bees were dying like this. I agree with the maker of this video that we should stop farms from using pesticides and only planting one crop. Let's do it... FOR THE BEES!

The bees are very important to this world. You may think no their not they sting me, but that might have been because you were too close to their hive. The bees carry the pollen and the pollen helps the plants grow and when the plants grow we eat and when we eat we do not die! And that is always a good thing!! :)

We are only growing 1 type of crop. Bees need a healthy diet.

One cause for colony collapse disorder are farms with only one crop. Bees need a varied diet and one food doesn't work. Along with that, if there is only one crop and a disease spreads it takes the whole farm so you need a lot of harmful pesticides which hurts the bees.

I think we just learned this in a little story, and this was posted about four years ago! I guess the problem is going on and on, and we can't find an antidote like in the Norman Bough guided reading book!
