Nothing about trucking the bees around
It's precisely what I said:
The industry is focused on honey production (for the hive owners), and following after the crop cycles of almonds, fruits, and so on.
and
This has been going on for over 2000 years
Nonsense. Can you show me that domestic managed hives outnumbered feral hives at any time in history, prior to 1930 or so? My point is that poor breeding and commuter-pollinating are man-made phenomena, and resultant strains on the species should not be a surprise.
The Romans were beekeeping in 70 BC.
You can deny, ignore or whatever else floats your boat but history is history. Humans have been bee keeping for well over 2000 years. I am not sure where you got the idea that all or most of the honey prior to 1930 was wild but you are dead wrong.
Honey has been a human cultivated product for a very long time. In fact they have found a site that dates from 900 BC in the Jordan valley with had 30 artificial hives intact and the room for another 70 or so.
The Chinese of around that same period were writing books on bee keeping.
