Smart beehive monitoring for remote regions

Summary

The CRC for Honey Bee Products has developed a new sensor monitoring system to help Australian beekeepers easily, accurately and cheaply measure beehive health, including beehive weight, even in remote areas. A healthy and well-spread honey bee population is crucial for the pollination of local crops and native flora. Monitoring the health of beehives is more important than ever for managing sustainability of the Australian honey bee industry.
