MGA Biology Professor Discusses the Importance of Bees in Georgia's Agriculture with 13 WMAZ

MGA Associate Professor of Biology Kirby Swenson spoke with 13 WMAZ, discussing the vital role bees, and their relationship with weather, play in Georgia's agriculture.

"Kirby Swenson, director of the bee projects at Middle Georgia State University, associate professor of biology, and the president of the three county beekeepers club, did some research between the weather and the bees.

Kirby's initial hypothesis wasn't successful. 

'If they know when the storm is coming then maybe they can sense pressure changes, and unfortunately that research did not prove they are able to detect changes,' he said."
