150TH ANNlVERSARY:The A.I. Root Company - Then To Now

摘要

The 150th Celebration at the A.I. Root Company exceeded all expectations. Beyond the various presentations, it was announced that long-time editor of Bee Culture, Kim Flottum, is stepping down and taking his place will be Jerry Hayes, who readers might know as the current author of American Bee Journal's extremely popular monthly column, 'The Classroom." Mr. Hayes has a long history of employment in regulatory (Florida State Apiarist), research (Monsanto's now Bayer's honey bee point person), and iscurrently North American Vice President of Vita Bee Health. This transition could mean some interesting developments in the possible future alignment and focus of both monthly bee magazines that have been in publication since the 1800s.
