The effect of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) of cell phone tower on foraging behaviour of honey bee, Apis cerana F. was studied at Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat from December to May during 2012-13 and 2013-14 at an interval of 15 days. To quantify the effect of EMR, five treatments were placed at varying distance from the tower having different radiation level. The present study results revealed that the peak foraging behaviour of worker bees continues from March to May. The foraging…

Electromagnetic Effect on Vitality and Activity of Honey Bees in El- Beheira Governorate, Egypt
- Biology
- 2021
The results obtained showed an increase in the number of honey bee workers leaving the placed hives at a distance of 100 meters from the high-pressure electric tower, and it was observed that the queens were affected, as they lessened their deposited eggs; expressed by the capped brood area in square inches.
