The terms "GMO" and "neonicotinoids" are not necessarily primary, as their use is distinct and can be found together or independently. GMOs are plants modified with altered DNA, while neonicotinoids are a class of insecticides. Both can be used in agriculture, but their impacts are not directly linked. 

GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms):

Definition: GMOs are plants or animals with altered DNA through genetic engineering. 

Purpose: GMOs are often developed to be more resistant to pests, herbicides, or to improve nutritional content. 

Examples: Common examples include corn, soybeans, canola, and cotton. 

Impact: GMOs have been linked to increased yields, reduced pesticide use in some cases, and potential environmental concerns related to herbicide resistance and non-target effects. 

Neonicotinoids (Neonics):

Definition:

Neonicotinoids are a class of insecticides that act on the nervous system of insects. 

Application:

They are often used as seed treatments or applied directly to plants. 

Impact:

Neonicotinoids have been linked to declines in pollinator populations, including honeybees, due to their systemic nature and toxicity to insects. 

Environmental Concerns:

Neonicotinoids can persist in the environment and contaminate water sources, impacting non-target species. 

GMOs and Neonicotinoids:

Independent Use: Neonicotinoids can be used on both GMO and non-GMO crops. 

Potential Overlap: Some GMO crops may be developed to be more tolerant of herbicides, which can then be used in conjunction with neonicotinoid seed treatments. 

No Direct Connection: There is no inherent link between GMOs and neonicotinoids; they are separate technologies with distinct applications and impacts.

In 2025, German bee populations face significant challenges, with honey bee colony losses reaching 60-100% in some cases. This is impacting both commercial beekeepers and agriculture. While some studies suggest possible co-existence between honey bees and wild bees, both are affected by factors like pesticides, parasites, and declining food sources. 

Here's a more detailed look at the situation:

Commercial Beekeepers Facing Losses:

In January 2025, commercial beekeepers in Germany reported mass honey bee colony losses, ranging from 60% to 100%. 

Impact on Agriculture:

These losses could lead to significant negative impacts on agriculture due to the reduced pollination of crops. 

Factors Contributing to Bee Mortality:

Pesticides: The use of pesticides in agriculture and home gardens can harm bees (see e.g. neonics etc. - d.48)! 

Declining Food Sources: Intensive farming and poor garden management reduce the availability of nectar and pollen for bees. 

Parasites: Varroa mites and the small hive beetle are also significant threats to bee colonies. 

Disease: Infections with viruses like Deformed Wing Virus (DWV) and Acute Bee Paralysis Virus (ABPV) can impact overwintering. 

Other Factors: Factors like queen age, colony strength in autumn, and high Varroa mite infestation levels also contribute to colony losses. 

Wild Bee Decline:

Wild bee populations are also declining, with many species considered endangered or threatened with extinction. Over 50% of wild bee species in Germany are endangered. 

Co-existence Possible:

Some studies suggest that honey bees and wild bees can coexist, despite the challenges they face.  

Temporary suspensions had previously been enacted in France, Germany and Italy. In Switzerland, where neonicotinoids were never used in alpine areas, neonics were banned due to accidental poisonings of bee populations and the relatively low safety margin for other beneficial insects.
