Castilla y León has extended the mandatory annual treatment period for varroosis in beekeeping from August 1 to December 31. This adjustment aligns the health calendar with local climatic and production conditions, particularly benefiting migratory beekeeping operations. The resolution, issued on August 13, 2026, by the General Directorate of Agricultural and Livestock Production, was published in the Official Bulletin of Castilla y León (BOCyL) on August 28. While national regulations generally set the treatment period between September and November, regional authorities can modify these dates based on local characteristics.
