Beekeepers’ preferences for honeybee breeding goals: a French case study

2026-01-30

Abstract excerpt

Honeybee breeding plans are relatively recent in most countries. In France, diverse small-scale breeding groups are emerging. Beekeepers are highly diverse in their motivations, farm productions and services, practices and management techniques. Yet, little is known about what beekeepers would consider as relevant breeding goals in the design of breeding plans. We therefore conducted an online survey answered by a...
