We have nearly 700 oral and poster presentations for the congress. We are going to discuss the problems of beekeeping and beekeepers about 5 days and we are going to look for solutions together. We will try to make the beekeeping industry a source of prot by having the power of being together under the roof of Apimondia. We all know that the problems, risks and losses of beekeepers and bees are the same all over the world. For this reason, solutions must also be sought in common. During the congress Bee Biology, Beekeeping Technology and Quality, Bee Health, Beekeeping for Rural Development, Pollination and Bee Flora, Beekeeping Economy and Apitherapy will be discussed in detail. Some subjects will be elaboreted by the keynote speechs, plenary sessions and roundtable meetings. Our aim is contribution to the development of bekeeping and minimizing the risks may arise. Together with the scientic sessions, for the rst time in this congress, we’ll organize the “Continents are Tallking” roound table series to increase the share of knowledge in the Beekeeping World. Beside this OIE- World Organisation for Animal Health will also hold annual bee disease meeting in a special session during the congress. In our changing world, especially environmental factors, climate changes have many negative effects on our beekeeping. Especially environmental pollution and pesticides are serious threats to our bees. For this reason, the importance of congresses like Apimondia is increasing. The topics and information exchanged here will be very useful for all of our beekeepers. The main goal in these congresses is to share knowledge and experience and to increase the eld efciency and healthy production. We hope that all guests from about 105 countries will have a efcient congress. Throughout the Congress you will have the opportunity to see the beauty of our city and our country you will experience the Turkish hospitality. I welcome you all again to Istanbul, the Cradle of Civilizations and wish you to have an unforgettable congress.

There are over 83 million honey bee colonies in the world. Within last 50 years the world managed honey bee colony number increased from 49 million to 83 million, and total honey production increased from 68,000 tons to 1,680,000 tons. China is the world’s leader in beekeeping; having the highest number of honey bee colonies, the largest producer of honey, royal jelly and other bee products. Turkey is the second most honey. In recent years honey bees are facing many problems mainly; pests and pathogens, environmental stressors and loss of genetic diversity. Honey bee pests and pathogens are the main problems of world beekeeping. The most devastating problem is the Varroa destructor. The European honey bee colonies die off within a couple of years if they are not treated. However the Africanized bees are more tolerant to diseases and parasites and they can survive without any treatment. Honey bees are also facing serious environmental stressors such as habitat destruction by human (deforestation, forest res, urbanization), exposure to agrochemicals, mismanagement, global warming and climate change. Honey bees are social insects and they can regulate the temperature inside the hive. They will survive and adapt to new conditions as long as they have water and uncontaminated nectar and pollen sources nearby to forage. High temperatures in the hot and dry areas will reduce the lifespan of the bees. With the reduced lifespan the colony population will be smaller and the honey yield will be much less. In the warmer climates colonies will have brood all year round and it will be more difcult to control parasitic mites like Varroa destructor and Tropilaleps mersedesea. Similarly Nosema cerana virulence and infections will multiply with the increased temperature. Moreover global warming will increase the reproduction of the pest insects and they will have more generations in a year. Some secondary pests will become major pests in many agricultural crops. More frequent uses of agrochemicals will also kill the bees and most of the agricultural elds will not be suitable for beekeeping. All these stressor will have a greater pressure on honey bees and it will be more challenging to have healthy and productive colonies in the future. Even though the numbers of colonies are increasing in

    Complementary and Alternative Medicine Policy Number: Original Effective Date: MM.12.013 01/01/2014 Line(s) of Business: Current Effective Date: HMO; PPO 11/17/2017 Section: Miscellaneous Place(s) of Service: Outpatient I. Description Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), also called non-traditional medicine, is a group of diverse medical and healthcare systems, practices and products that are not typically considered to be a part of traditional Western medicine (i.e., conventional medicine). This policy addresses services performed by CAM providers such as naturopaths, chiropractors and acupuncturists. Complementary medicine generally refers to using a non-traditional approach together with conventional medicine. Alternative medicine refers to using a non-traditional approach in place of conventional medicine. Various CAM assessments and therapies are supported by some degree of scientific evidence and are intended to reduce disease-based symptoms and to improve health outcomes. However, due to a lack of well-designed scientific studies and/or peer reviewed literature many CAM therapies have not been shown to improve health outcomes over conventional therapies. II. Criteria/Guidelines A CAM service or procedure is covered (subject to Limitations and Administrative Guidelines) when all of the following criteria are met: A. It meets the definition of medical necessity as specified in Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) Section 432: 1. It is for the purpose of treating a medical condition. 2. It is the most appropriate delivery or level of service, considering potential benefits and harms to the patient; 3. It is known to be effective in improving health outcomes; provided that: a. Effectiveness is determined first by scientific evidence; b.

  • Modelling Non-Timber Forest Products for Forest Management Planning in Europe
    Current Forestry Reports (2020) 6:309–322 https://doi.org/10.1007/s40725-020-00130-7 FOREST POLICY, ECONOMICS AND SOCIAL RESEARCH (A TOPPINEN, SECTION EDITOR) Modelling Non-timber Forest Products for Forest Management Planning in Europe Jari Miina1 & Mikko Kurttila1 & Rafael Calama2 & Sergio de-Miguel3,4 & Timo Pukkala5 Accepted: 13 August 2020 / Published online: 9 October 2020 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Purpose of Review The increased popularity and commercial use of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) calls for the develop- ment of models for NTFPs to include their predicted yields in forest management planning and to evaluate the potential of multi- functional forest management. This study assesses and discusses the current state of the art and trends in NTFP yield modelling in Europe and the integration of the models in multi-functional forest management planning at different spatial scales. Recent Findings Climate-sensitive empirical yield models already exist not only for a variety of NTFPs that are economically important to forest owners (e.g. cork and pine nuts) but also for wild-gathered berries and mushrooms, the harvesting of which cannot be controlled by the forest landowner in all European countries. Several studies on multi-functional forest management planning consider the economic profitability of the joint production of timber and NTFP. Harvesting NTFPs can create signif- icant additional incomes for forest owners, compared with timber production only. However, maximizing the economic returns from the joint production of timber and NTFPs often calls for changes in forest management practices. Summary Continued efforts in modelling and predicting the yields of NTFPs have enabled forest managers to further expand the analyses of multi-functional forest planning and management in Europe.
