McDonald's Bees on the Rise in Cities, Number of Hives in Amsterdam Must Decrease

Municipality of Amsterdam Aims to Reduce Number of Beehives

The number of beehives in Amsterdam needs to be reduced. The municipality of Amsterdam intends to do this because wild bees are being displaced by the variety kept by beekeepers. A spokesperson confirmed this following reports from Het Parool. The municipality will introduce measures later this year to decrease the number of beehives. A permit requirement for beekeepers is among the possibilities.
