1 By David C. Munthali Botswana College of Agriculture, P/Bag 0027, Gaborone, Botswana A paper presented at the Regional Training Seminar on Diseases of Honey Bees June 2011
2 Pesticides and the development of Agriculture in Southern Africa Periods when honey bees face the greatest risk of pesticide poisoning Potential hazards to humans and honey bees from pesticide use in crop production Potential hazards to humans from use of pesticides in apiculture Future direction on pesticides & insecticides in southern
3
4 Increased urbanisation in all SADC countries Causing high demand for food & fibre Resulting in a general shift from Subsistence to Commercial farming Causing change in farmers attitudes towards Pest Control Also causing a general shift from low value to high value crops The term Agribusiness is becoming part of the language of agriculture in the region
5 Yield losses that were tolerated in subsistence cropping systems are no longer tolerable Any losses caused by pests are now perceived as threatening the agribusiness Presence of any pests on crop plants are seen as threatening profits To remove this risk: Effective Pest Control is becoming the main objective of farmers Farmers see Chemical control as offering the most reliable & demonstrable levels of pest control relative to cost of application
6 Most commercial farmers perceive pesticides as crucial in their production systems Most believe that it is impossible to grow certain crops without applying pesticides Most either use calendar sprays or apply pesticides whenever they find any insect in their crop field Frequencies of 2 to 3 application per week are not unusual in high value crops There is a growing over-reliance on pesticides by most commercial farmers in Southern Africa
7 Pesticide resistance in pest species that were previously controlled by them Outbreaks of new pests Adverse effects on non-target organisms including beneficial (natural enemies & pollinators like honey bees) Mammalian toxicity (including toxicity to humans) Pollution of the environment (the soil, water bodies & the air)
8 Occurs when: Worker bees are foraging for nectar, pollen & propolis from crop plants in a farm Workers forage for nectar, pollen & propolis from wild flowering plants in vegetation near the farm/garden Workers are foraging for water from polluted pools in farms and surrounding areas Workers collect nectar & pollen contaminated with pesticides The greatest risk of honey bee poisoning is when major forage plants are in bloom
9 When wild bee forage plants are in bloom When cultivated forage plants are in bloom During the build-up period and the honey flow periods
10 Forage species Forage items Period in bloom & Greatest risk of Bee poisoning A erioloba Nectar & pollen July - September A.. mellifera Nectar & pollen August - March A. robusta Nectar & pollen August - October A. erubescens Nectar & pollen August - October A. nigrescens Nectar & pollen August - November A. caffra Nectar & pollen September - November A. polycantha Nectar & pollen September - December A. nilotica Nectar & pollen September - April A. tortilis Nectar & pollen November - January A. flekii Nectar & pollen November - March

14 Forage species Forage items Period in bloom & Greatest risk of Bee poisoning Eucalyptus cammaldulensis Nectar, pollen & propolis August - December E. tricortonis Nectar, pollen & propolis August - December Grewia bicolor Grevillea robusta Nectar, pollen & propolis Nectar, pollen & propolis October - January November - January

17 In SADC countries, pesticide hazards occur through: Direct contact with the skin; eyes during application (Dermal toxicity) Inhalation of air polluted with pesticide (drifting from farms or in fumigated enclosures) Consumption of contaminated food including honey & pollen (Oral toxicity) Drinking polluted water or using pesticide polluted water for bathing (Oral toxicity)
