The National Bee Diagnostic Centre in Beaverlodge will soon begin sharing expertise in honey bee pest and parasite diagnostics with a similar facility in the United States. The agreement between GPRC, who operates the NBDC, and the U-S-D-A’s Beltsville Agricultural Research Centre includes a short term exchange of personnel for training purposes. The National Bee Diagnostic Centre opened on the grounds of the Agriculture Canada Research Farm back in 2012. In that short time, it has received international attention as one of a handful of facilities worldwide that are working to solve health related issues in the honeybee population.
