Is COLOSS an Ivory Tower of Beekeeping Science? Efforts to Bridge Research and Practice (B-RAP)

Abstract

Introduction History of B-RAP B-RAP (Bridging Research and Practice) was established as a core project within the COLOSS association meaning that it will always be maintained in contrast to task forces, which are initiated and abandoned pending demand. Its facilitators have the specific intention of supporting beekeepers and beekeeping by connecting science and beekeeping through the work of beekeeping advisory services.
