National Honey Report Vol. XLI - Number 9 Page 2 September 21, 2021

COLONY, HONEY PLANT AND MARKET CONDITIONS DURING AUGUST 2021

APPALACHIAN DISTRICT (MD, PA, VA, WV): August was a steamer with plenty of hot, humid days with isolated showers and thunderstorms. Beekeepers reported very good honey flows and were concentrating on checking and treating colonies as they finished pulling honey and begin to prepare for the fall. Nectar and pollen sources were mostly wildflowers with daisies, milkweed, joe pye weed dominating the bloom. These wildflowers did bloom fairly good despite the hot and mostly dry weather, so beekeepers are hoping for a buildup of good honey stores for the winter. Entries in county fairs were higher this season as fairs were not cancelled due to covid restrictions.

ALABAMA: August was wetter and warmer than normal throughout much of the state. In some cases, this limited beekeeper opportunities to inspect colonies and worker honeybee opportunities to collect nectar and pollen. Generally, a time of dearth, native plants like butterfly milkweed, gaillardia, and narrow-leaf sun flower were in bloom during the month; cotton was too, and afforded some nectar to colonies. In northern regions of the state goldenrod started to flower. When possible, beekeepers monitored their colonies for food stores, and applied varroa treatments in preparation for winter. Large small hive beetle populations were reported in various places. Some beekeeper clubs met in person – either via their regular monthly meetings or during outdoor field days – whereas other clubs reverted back to virtual meetings due to a rise in COVID-19 cases.

ARIZONA: No report issued.

ARKANSAS: During the month of August temperatures were above normal across most of the state. Precipitation during August was below normal across most of the state. The precipitation was calculated before Hurricane Ida made its way across the Eastern edge of the state. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor website, Arkansas had normal soil moisture conditions for August. Too few prices exist to establish a current market price for wholesale white honey.

CALIFORNIA: “The drought is intense, but our colonies are surviving,” one California beekeeper said as August came to a close. “We’ve started fall feeding to prepare them for winter. Our honey crop is short. We are concerned about water availability for the almond orchards.” “We are experiencing a lack of nectar producing plants, but there seems to be no lack of pollen producing plants,” another beekeeper said. “We have completed all pollination contracts and have placed our bees in the fall holding yards where natural water supply is available. We are feeding syrup, collecting dead outs, and preparing for winter.” “I have not paid much attention to the honey market, but from the few beekeepers that I have talked to, very little honey has been or will be extracted,” he added.

FLORIDA: Precipitation and temperatures were about average for Florida in August. Wide-spread, mostly afternoon thunderstorms coupled with high humidity and hot temperatures resulted in triple digit heat indexes most days. Bee health was considered about average for August in Florida. The heat during the summer months is expected to cause some hive shrinkage and the hives to become a little less robust. Some of the more popular mite treatments cannot be used during the hotter summer months. Many hives were being treated for mites in preparation for the Brazilian Pepper honey season with other treatments. There were few sources of natural food and most beekeepers were having to supplemental feed. Near the end of the month bees began returning from other states. Almost all Florida bees should be back by the middle of September. Brazilian Pepper honey production should also begin around the middle of September. Spanish Needle and assorted wildflowers are expected to also begin blooming between early and late September. There was essentially no honey produced in Florida for commercial sales during the month. Stored supplies of honey appeared to be very light at the end of the month.

GEORGIA: Most beekeepers are checking the hives and getting ready to treat them for mites and beetles. General losses of around 30-40 percent from earlier reports have kept the beekeepers on top of treatments to prevent further loss and prepare the bees for the Fall honey flow. Cotton fields are reported to be in better shape than last year, and Goldenrod is coming along nicely. Plenty of heat early and some rain later in the month with Hurricane weather upon us drenching some areas. Demand is better and bulk sales are increasing as schools and businesses are reopening and hopefully that will jumpstart new business.

IDAHO, COLORADO, UTAH: During the month of August temperatures were about normal across all Western and Eastern Idaho. Utah had temperatures that were a little lower than normal across most of the state. Colorado had temperatures that were normal across the Western side of the state for August. Temperatures were a little higher than normal for the Eastern side of the state. Precipitation during August was a lot higher than average for Utah, Precipitation for Eastern Idaho was above normal for August, Western Idaho saw about average precipitation for the month. Western Colorado saw precipitation that was above normal. Eastern Colorado saw precipitation that was a lot lower than normal for August. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor website, Idaho had Severe drought to exceptional drought with a couple areas of moderate drought soil conditions. Utah is currently under extreme to exceptional drought conditions with a couple areas of severe drought but more under exceptional drought. The whole Western side of the state of Colorado is between Moderate dry to extreme drought with a small patch of exceptional drought, the Eastern side of the state is between no drought to moderate drought with mostly no drought. Demand for Locally sourced honey has been great throughout all three states, it has exceeded supply of honey. Most producers in Idaho and Utah have been extracting honey and they say the new crop looks good, but producers in Idaho are saying that this year will be a below average size crop. Producers in Utah are saying it will be an average size crop. Colorado has just started extracting and they say the crop looks good and they will get a normal yield this year. Most producers can’t keep up with the demand for local honey in all three states. Prices for the month of August were between $1.80 and $2.75 per pound with a mostly price of $2.30-$2.75 for Idaho, Colorado prices are $1.75- $1.95 per pound for local honey. Prices for locally sourced honey in Utah are average $2.27-$2.36 per pound.

ILLINOIS: The weather for August was hot and dry for most of the month, but with brief periods of cooler temperatures and rain. Beekeepers report that beetles are not much of a problem this year, but varroa mites are causing a few problems, so treatments for the mites have been given. Beekeepers report that most of their bees are in good condition. Beekeepers also report that there are Dutch clover, goldenrod, purple cone flower and aster for the bees. Beekeepers report that a decent amount of honey was produced this month. Demand for honey is very good at the retail level and fairly good at the wholesale level. Prices are generally unchanged with some higher retail prices.

National Honey Report Vol. XLI - Number 9 Page 3 September 21, 2021 INDIANA: The weather for August warmer than average temperatures with a few very hot days. Few problems with insects were reported. Most of the bees are said to be in good condition. Beekeepers report average amounts of honey production. Demand for honey is good at the retail level and fairly good at the wholesale level. Prices are generally unchanged.

IOWA, KANSAS, MISSOURI, NEBRASKA: No report issued.

KENTUCKY: The Kentucky State Beekeepers Association enjoyed steady honey sales at the Kentucky State Fair throughout August. Although in general, attendance at the State Fair declined as a result of high positivity rates of Covid and its Delta variant in the state, State Fair attendees were very interested in purchasing the honey varietals that were available and in supporting the Certified Kentucky Honey Program. In terms of hive diseases throughout the state, one apiary suffered an outbreak of American foulbrood, which was identified by the state apiarist. All hives from that one apiary (6 hives) were destroyed, and an examination of another nearby apiary showed no signs of the disease. Varroa mite populations were high in August. There were also significantly high temperatures for a sustained period in August, leading some hives to consume their stores and begin to die due to the beekeeper not monitoring food stores. Since Fall armyworm and stinkbug have been a problem for soybean growers this year, there have been several calls from beekeepers worried about the impact of spraying. As of this writing, there has not been hive mortality due to pesticide sprays, but rather, the hives have run out of honey.

LOUISIANA: During the month of August temperatures were about normal across most of the state. Precipitation was about normal across the state until the very end of the month. Hurricane Ida changed that for a large portion of the state. Ranked as one of the strongest hurricanes to make landfall it dumped huge amounts of rain across the Eastern half of the state on the 29th and 30th. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor website, Louisiana had normal soil moisture conditions for August. This was before Ida was calculated into the conditions. Too few prices exist to establish a current market price for wholesale white honey.

MICHIGAN: August was another warm month. Despite the warm and sometimes wet weather, most beekeepers are reporting healthy hives. Many beekeepers are continuing to monitor for the Varroa mites and treat when necessary to keep the hive healthy. Bees were foraging on Goldenrod, Nettles, Mints, Dutch Cover, garden herbs, sunflowers, and some Aster. The bees were able to collect pollen but very little nectar this month. It's looking like weather has had an adverse effect on honey production in this area. Many beekeepers are reporting lower than normal honey crops this summer.

MINNESOTA: During the month of August temperatures were normal across the south side of the state. Temperatures were a little higher than normal for the north side of Minnesota. Precipitation in August was below normal in the whole state of Minnesota. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor website, in August northern Minnesota had Severe dry to exceptional drought soil moisture and the southern part of Minnesota has no drought to severe drought with mostly moderately dry soil. Supply for Minnesota honey continues to be good for locally sourced honey and producers are keeping up with the demand. Producers are saying so far, they think this year’s honey crop will produce a higher-than-average yield. Prices per pound in Minnesota were $1.80-$2.27 for locally sourced honey for the month of August.

MISSISSIPPI: Beekeepers are treating the hives and checking the bees for condition and weight after normal losses reported earlier. Plenty of rain and wildflowers to go along with it with Goldenrod is coming in. The Fall honey flow appears to be in good shape so far depending upon weather during Hurricane season.

MONTANA: No report issued.

NEW ENGLAND: New England weather for the month of August has continued to be hot and humid with sporadic periods of heavy thunderstorms and remnants of tropical storms coming up from the south. The storms bring with them heavy rain events with plenty of humidity accompanying them. This year’s summer has bestowed us with the usual ornamental and floral sources for pollen and nectar such as clethra, clover, sumac, mint, American linden wood, mills weed, monarda, hyssop, crepe myrtle, butterfly weed, raspberry and blackberry, calendula, cosmos, sunflower, salvia, chicory, Southern magnolia, vetch, cranberry and wildflowers. The major swarm season winds down in mid-July, even though the population is still high. The summer heat requires bees to ventilate and perhaps beard outside the hive on the hottest evenings. It is also the time to buildup nucleus hives for overwintering. This month of August has shown the price of honey at mostly $24 per quart, pollen $30 per quart and propolis mostly at $18 for 2 oz. Beeswax for brushing on plastic foundation is mostly $10/lb.

NEW YORK: August was hotter, more humid than normal, with an abundance of rain at the end of the month in most locations in New York State. Many areas experienced a dearth. Goldenrod, Japanese Knotweed, Purple loosestrife coming through, but nectar is decreased due to the warmer nights. Cooler weather is predicted which may give a boost to the peak nectar flow in September. Many beekeepers started late summer varroa mite treatments, as mite numbers are increasing, with some reports of difficulty with formic because of the above normal temperatures. Honey demand strong, as is sales competition due to the popularity of bees and beekeeping, with many opting to sell honey as a producer or as a reseller. Bulk sales good, with increase in prices; production has been good due to a strong early flow.

NORTH CAROLINA: Temperatures in North Carolina were above normal in August with a statewide average temperature of 77.8°F. Precipitation was slightly above normal after remnants of Tropical Storm Fred crossed the Mountain region of the state. Overall statewide soil moisture levels were rated 4% very short, 21% short, 71% adequate, and 4% surplus the week ending August 28. The North Carolina Drought Management Advisory Council reported 8 counties as being abnormally dry. The recent rainfall led to a productive soybean crop; some reports indicate bees near soybean fields were bringing in nectar. Colonies not located near agricultural fields were being provided supplemental feed. Other food sources included Heartsease, Smartweed, Knotweed, and Golden Rod in the Piedmont region; Pepperbush and Golden Rod in the Coastal Plains; while Sumac was available across the State. Pest pressures from varroa mites and National Honey Report Vol. XLI - Number 9 Page 4 September 21, 2021 small hive beetles were high in the southeastern Coastal Plains, according to apiary inspectors. Management efforts included applying mite treatments and various beetle controls. Retail honey prices at the Raleigh State Farmers’ Market were generally unchanged: $7.00-$8.00 per 8-ounce jar, $12.00-$13.00 per 16-ounce jar, $20.00-$22.00 per 32-ounce jar, and $18.00 per 44-ounce jar; processed honey, creamed, was $10.00 per 16-ounce jar. Prices at the Piedmont Triad Farmers’ Market in Greensboro were also unchanged at: $8.00-$12.00 per 8-ounce jar, $12.00-$18.00 per 22-ounce jar, and $20.00 per 32-ounce jar.

NORTH & SOUTH DAKOTA: Water and soil moisture continued to average well below normal limiting and delaying some floral sources. Sunflower bloom started the month at about 50% near average and was done by the end of the month. Potatoes finished bloom and rows were closing by late August. The 2nd cutting of alfalfa was nearly completed by the end of August. Most crops were on schedule with the average in timing, but most ranged from poor to fair in quality due to heat and lack of moisture.

OHIO: Another hot month in Ohio! Surprisingly the northern counties had the highest temperatures, and two northern counties (Geauga and Huron) received the most rain (4.20” for both counties) on August 30 and 27, respectively. Along with the high temperatures, the humidity remained high, making both beekeepers and honeybees busy and agitated. Soybeans produced major nectar and pollen flows, honeybee colonies produced 75 pounds of honey from soybeans and white Dutch clover. Soybeans have become a major nectar source for honeybees in Ohio. Honeybees increase the yield of beans by 20%, per research. Army worm issues are appearing on Alfalfa in some areas of Ohio which require spraying, alfalfa has become a major crop for hay plus beekeepers for the honey. Cooperation between farmers and beekeepers is necessary when spraying is required both on alfalfa and soybeans. Toledo had 12 days that were 90F or above, peaking at 95 degrees August 3 and 25. The Columbus area experienced seven days in the 90’s, peaking at 92 degrees on August 12 and 24. Surprisingly the Cincinnati area only had 8 days above 90 degrees and peaked at 93 degrees. While most of Ohio received some rainfall, Cincinnati was dry except for August 16 when it received 1.76”. Dryer areas of Ohio have reported that the honeybees have consumed most of their stored honey, while areas with more rain have harvested a moderate to good crop of honey. Mite treatments have been installed in many apiaries although overall reports of mite pressure has been low to moderate. Beekeepers need to monitor closely however as September/October are the worse months in which varroa mites can build quickly and decimate the colony. The honeybees in the southeast part of Ohio are still doing quite well. Pollen and nectar are being brought in by the bees with the brood areas filling most of the hive bodies. It's time to get mite checks done, using an alcohol wash is the recommended method. Feeding pollen patties in small pieces is also a good idea this time of the year. Some late swarms are being reported and with some nurturing can still get strong enough to over winter. Now is also the time to get those honey supers off before the aster and goldenrod start blooming. August has remained hotter than normal with high humidity and warm nights with lots of bearding. Normal low honey production, hand to mouth, not really a dearth. Most areas have had some rain with some isolated areas with heavy rain at times. Fall flowers are starting to bloom. Varroa is increasing and small hive beetle populations remain low. Queens have reduced egg laying. Honey prices remain stable $5.00 to $6.00 per pound wholesale and $8.00 to $10.00 per pound retail.

OKLAHOMA: During the month of August temperatures were about normal across most of the state. Precipitation during August was about normal across the state. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor website, soil conditions were normal with a small area of abnormally dry soil conditions in far West Oklahoma. Too few prices exist to establish a current market price for wholesale white honey

OREGON: No report issued.

SOUTH CAROLINA: No report issued.

TENNESSEE: Tennessee has been having a good nectar flow through August from goldenrod and asters. Beekeepers have been reporting better than average honey harvests this year. It appears from the reports I have been getting from beekeepers that the general public is purchasing more honey this year than in past years. Beekeepers that have reported better than average honey production are reporting that they are selling out of honey earlier this year than in past years. Tennessee has not seen any high loses of colonies so far this year.

TEXAS: During the month of August temperatures were about normal across most of the state. Precipitation during August was a completely different story. On a state-wide scale rainfall was slightly above normal. That is a very deceptive statement for two reasons. First, August and rainfall are not talked about in a large part of the state due to the lack of significant amounts. Second, this year, depending on exactly where you were, it was really a very wet August. You had to be in the right spot, or you had a more typical August. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor website, soil moisture conditions for August were normal across most of the state including far West Texas. Too few prices exist to establish a current market price for wholesale white honey.

WASHINGTON: Temperatures above normal and extremely dry conditions throughout the state. Cherry harvest continued in later districts, but many districts were moving to peaches, nectarines, pears, and apples. Blueberry harvest continued. Wildfires burned across parts of the state, while a large fire in Yakima county continued to expand (nearing 80,000 acres) causing poor air quality. It also inhibited bee activity in smoke affected areas. Cooler weather aided irrigation concerns in some areas, but no rain eased drought conditions.

WISCONSIN: The weather for August was hotter and dryer than usual. Some beekeepers report to having treated for mites. Most bees are in good condition, but some are in poor condition. Foliage such as Goldenrod, white snakeroot, mint, asters, clovers, Joe pye weed, amaranth, queen Anne’s lace, tansy, elderberry, boneset, ragweed and nettles are available for the bees. Some beekeepers report that production was good, while others report that it was just average, and some will not be extracting until next month. Demand for honey is good at the retail level and fairly good at the wholesale level. Prices are generally unchanged.
