Aleandri”, Rome, Italy, and the BPractices project, have worked together, with the support of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ Animal Health Service, to develop and publish on TECA, a set of 11 “TECA technologies” on the main bee diseases and bee health. The information sheets are designed following the TECA standards, to help beekeepers, and those providing advisory services to the beekeepers, correctly identify honey bee diseases, apply the correct treatment and to prevent them. The TECA thematic catalogue "Good beekeeping practices: Main bee diseases" groups the 11 practices together in a printed document for distribution among potential users and partners of TECA.
