The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has approved the first vaccine for honeybees, which will prevent American foulbrood disease, a fatal bacterial disease that destroys honeybee colonies.
The USDA earlier this week gave a green light for the distribution and usage of the world’s first honeybee vaccine to treat hive bacteria infection, foulbrood disease.
The world's first vaccine for honeybees has been granted a conditional license in the US, a massive breakthrough in the protection of these insects critical for food production.
