In Erzincan, beekeepers are being urged to take precautions as temperatures soar to 40 degrees Celsius, which could negatively impact bee colonies. They have called on producers to implement necessary measures to protect their hives.

Cemal Gümüş, a beekeeper with nearly 40 years of experience in Erzincan, noted that previous extreme heat events have led to significant losses in bee colonies. He emphasized that temperatures above 37 degrees pose a serious risk to bees, with highs approaching 40 degrees becoming increasingly common.
