Episode 31:Varroa Mite and the Future of Australian Beekeeping w/Andrea and James

Welcome to another episode of You're Missen the Point podcast. Today I am joined by Andrea and James a mother and son team focused on raising awareness of Australia's growing Varroa Mite infestation, botched government control mechanisms and the dire consequences it will have on Australia's agricultural system.  I have to take my hat off to Andrea she has raised an amazing, dedicated and resilient young man who has taken it upon himself to stand up for not only himself but everyone in the nation. James is an energetic well spoken 19 year old that is already noticing many of the failures in our system and is actively trying to challenge the status quo by bringing about positive change through awareness and information.  We went on to discuss; - Varroa Mite.  - The importance of bees.  - Government intervention in Apiculture.  - Commercial VS Backyard beekeeping.  - Rising cost in food. - Impacts on the supply chain. - Government baiting stations. - Fipronil baiting stations. - The dangers associated with Fipronil.  - Biosecurity act.  - Unethical approaches by government. - Silence from the mainstream media and environmental groups. - Natural treatments.  - Solutions. How can we help?   And much much more...   You can follow all of Andrea and James important work at the link below.    https://linktr.ee/VastHarvestPermaculture    *This podcast and the information presented are for entertainment or informational purposes.
