Montana Honey Shortage Signals War Time Supply Strain
Montana beekeepers can meet only about 10 percent of the state's sugar demand for 1942, with roughly 2.8 million pounds of honey produced annually from 29 000 colonies. Producers expect a 25-33 percent rise in colonies, yet most honey sold below production cost. Beekeeping aids pollination and farm security programs propose distributing 1 200 used hives for wartime food needs.
