News Center Maine quotes Emanetoglu in report on beekeeping

A report by News Center Maine on combating the effects of the harsh winter on bees quoted Nuri Emanetoglu, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Maine. A beekeeper from Hampden, Peter Cowin, plans to use the bees that survived the winter to “breed better bees” to survive future Maine winters and prevent these severe losses, according to the report. “One of my colleagues lost about six out of his seven or eight hives,” Emanetoglu told News Center Maine.
