Miranda do Corvo council opens bee-feed support for local beekeepers until 30 November

The council of Miranda do Corvo, in the interior of Coimbra district, has opened applications for a scheme to help beekeepers feed their bees, running until 30 November. Eligible hives will receive two kilos of feed each. To qualify, beekeepers must be registered with the national food and veterinary authority, DGAV, and keep active hives in the municipality, with an up-to-date annual declaration of stock. The council presents the measure as a continuation of its support for the beekeeping sector and for the role bees play in pollination and ecosystems.
