research grants awarded by the Corn Dust Research Consortium (CDRC), a
multi-stakeholder initiative they are coordinating to invest research
dollars in reducing honey bee exposure to dust emitted during planting of
treated corn seeds. Pollinator Partnership is coordinating the Corn Dust
Research Consortium and has invited stakeholders from crop protection, seed
production, farm equipment, corn growing, beekeeping, academic,
governmental, and conservation organizations in the US and Canada to fund
and oversee two proposed research projects to better understand ideas for
mitigating risks to honey bees from exposure to planter-emitted dust during
corn planting.<br>
