The quarter surveyed in 2024 with the highest number of colonies renovated was April through June 2024 with 400,390 colonies renovated, or 14 percent. The quarter surveyed in 2024 with the lowest number of colonies renovated was October through December 2024, with 119,180, or 4 percent. Renovated colonies are those that were requeened or received new honey bees through a nucleus (nuc) colony or package. Varroa Mites Top Colony Stressor for Operations with Five or More colonies Varroa mites were the number one stressor for operations with five or more colonies during all quarters surveyed in 2024. The period with the highest percentage of colonies reported to be affected by varroa mites was April through June 2024 at 36.6 percent. The percent of colonies reported to be affected by varroa mites during January through March 2025 and April through June 2025 are 29.9 percent and 27.3 percent, respectively. Colonies Lost with Colony Collapse Disorder Symptoms Up 110 Percent for Operations with Five or More colonies Honey bee colonies lost with Colony Collapse Disorder symptoms on operations with five or more colonies was 148,410 colonies from January through March 2025.

Colonies Lost with Colony Collapse Disorder Symptoms with Five or More Colonies - United States: 2024 and 2025 [Loss reported that met all of the following criteria: 1) Little to no build-up of dead bees in the hive or at the hive entrance 2) Rapid loss of adult honey bee population despite the presence of queen, capped brood, and food reserves 3) Absence or delayed robbing of the food reserves 4) Loss not attributable to varroa or nosema loads.

Colony: A hive containing a queen honey bee and attendant worker bees and/or drone bees. Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) criteria: Colonies reported as being lost due to CCD must have fully met four criteria: 1) Little to no build-up of dead bees in the hive or at the hive entrance 2) Rapid loss of adult honey bee population despite the presence of queen, capped brood, and food reserves 3) Absence or delayed robbing of the food reserves 4) Loss not attributable to varroa or nosema loads. Colonies lost due to CCD were collected on a quarterly basis for operations with five or more colonies. Lost colony: A completely failed colony, loss of most workers, and possibly the queen. Colony is no longer viable. Sometimes referred to as a dead out. Maximum colonies: Refers to the sum of colonies in a state on the first of the quarter plus all those moved into the state during that period. Maximum colonies is considered the base number from which a data user can do further analysis. It does not include the colonies that were added, lost, or renovated in the state. Colonies are counted in every state they were in during the quarter; therefore, a national level maximum number of colonies cannot be calculated due to duplication. Nucleus colony (nuc): A smaller sized hive box with reduced numbers of bees and brood, usually containing a queen; used for expansion of the apiary operation or renovating an existing colony. Package: A shipping container with several pounds of honey bees that may or may not include a queen; used for expansion of the apiary operation or renovating an existing colony. Percent lost: The state-level percentage of colonies lost is the number of colonies lost in that state divided by the maximum colonies for that state. The national level percentage of colonies lost is the total number of all colonies lost in the United States divided by the number of colonies on the first of the quarter. Percent renovated: The state-level percentage of colonies renovated is the number of colonies renovated in that state divided by the maximum colonies for that state. The national level percentage of colonies renovated is the total number of all colonies renovated in the United States divided by the number of colonies on the first of the quarter. Renovated colony: An existing colony that was requeened or received a nuc or package. Stressors: State level colony health stressors for operations with five or more colonies are the percent of the maximum colonies reported to be affected, by quarter. The national level colony stressors is the summed number for the United States divided by the number of colonies on the first of the quarter. Statistical Methodology Survey Procedures: Data for operations with honey bee colonies are collected quarterly from a stratified sample of operations that responded as having five or more honey bee colonies on the Bee and Honey Inquiry and from the NASS list frame. NASS Regional Field Offices maintain a list of all known operations with honey bees and use known sources of producers to update their lists. All operations are mailed a questionnaire and given adequate time to respond by mail or electronic data reporting (EDR). Those that do not respond by mail or EDR are telephoned or possibly enumerated in person. Estimation Procedures: Estimates were prepared by the Agricultural Statistics Board after reviewing recommendations and analysis submitted by each Regional Field Office. All data were analyzed for unusual values. Data from each operation were compared to their own past operating profile and to trends from similar operations. Data for missing operations were estimated based on similar operations or historical data. National and State survey data were reviewed for reasonableness with each other and estimates from the previous quarters using a balance sheet. Revision Policy: The previous year's estimates are subject to revision when current year's estimates are made. Revisions are the result of late reports or corrected data. Reliability: Since all operations with honey bees are not included in the sample, survey estimates are subject to sampling variability. Survey results are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omissions, duplication, and mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data. While these errors cannot be measured directly, they are minimized through strict quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
