The Mebane field station maintains a group of well trained research scientists with working knowledge of beekeeping. The team leads the honey bee ecotoxicity studies in the US. Currently, approximately 500 bee hives are kept across apiaries here.
Field work is comprised of several different types of studies. The most common studies are honeybee ecotoxicity studies and residue studies. GLP studies are conducted at the request of the sponsor.
The common field crops are corn, cotton, soybeans and sunflowers. Our common vegetables include tomato, pepper, potatoes, cucurbits and broccoli.
The Mebane greenhouses are used most frequently to grow crops needed for transplant in the field, or to maintain arthropod cultures. Other studies maintained in a greenhouse setting include germination studies, pollination studies, water management studies, and caged insect studies.
