Download or read book Bees in America written by Tammy Horn and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2006-04-21 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honey bees—and the qualities associated with them—have quietly influenced American values for four centuries. During every major period in the country's history, bees and beekeepers have represented order and stability in a country without a national religion, political party, or language. Bees in America is an enlightening cultural history of bees and beekeeping in the United States. Tammy Horn, herself a beekeeper, offers a varied social and technological history from the colonial period, when the British first introduced bees to the New World, to the present, when bees are being used by the American military to detect bombs. Early European colonists introduced bees to the New World as part of an agrarian philosophy borrowed from the Greeks and Romans. Their legacy was intended to provide sustenance and a livelihood for immigrants in search of new opportunities, and the honey bee became a sign of colonization, alerting Native Americans to settlers' westward advance. Colonists imagined their own endeavors in terms of bees' hallmark traits of industry and thrift and the image of the busy and growing hive soon shaped American ideals about work, family, community, and leisure. The image of the hive continued to be popular in the eighteenth century, symbolizing a society working together for the common good and reflecting Enlightenment principles of order and balance. Less than a half-century later, Mormons settling Utah (where the bee is the state symbol) adopted the hive as a metaphor for their protected and close-knit culture that revolved around industry, harmony, frugality, and cooperation. In the Great Depression, beehives provided food and bartering goods for many farm families, and during World War II, the War Food Administration urged beekeepers to conserve every ounce of beeswax their bees provided, as more than a million pounds a year were being used in the manufacture of war products ranging from waterproofing products to tape. The bee remains a bellwether in modern America. Like so many other insects and animals, the bee population was decimated by the growing use of chemical pesticides in the 1970s. Nevertheless, beekeeping has experienced a revival as natural products containing honey and beeswax have increased the visibility and desirability of the honey bee. Still a powerful representation of success, the industrious honey bee continues to serve both as a source of income and a metaphor for globalization as America emerges as a leader in the Information Age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Today, the entire Hindu Kush-Himalayan region is facing a near crisis situation, both economical and environmental. National development strategies in this region are therefore being reoriented with major emphasis on food, income, nutrition and ecological security, especially for the unprivileged. In this task, ICIMOD, has a special role to play. The primary objective is to promote economically and environmentally sound programmes for the socioeconomic upliftment of the mountain farmers living at or below subsistence level. Apiculture (Beekeeping) is one such activity which fits very well into the policies and programmes of ICIMOD in relation to sustainable development of mountain agriculture." "This book presents 20 successful beekeeping experiences of experts from various fields, from countries such as China, one of the major producers and exporters of honey and other hive products; from Himachal Pradesh in northern India, which has taken a lead in utilizing honeybees in apple orchards for pollination purposes to boost production and improve quality; and other such success stories which can be of help to other countries where initiatives have been taken to develop apiculture on modern scientific lines."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
