HIVEMIND INDIEGOGO CAMPAIGN
LAND USE AGREEMENTS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE Apiculture New Zealand has developed two Land Use Agreements that will be available to members at a significantly discounted price.
EXTENDED UNTIL THE END OF MAY Some of you might have read on the NZ Beekeepers forum that New Zealand company Hivemind is running a crowdfunding campaign to develop a WiFi-connected beehive monitor. According to Hivemind’s description on the Indiegogo site, “The Hive Strength Monitor keeps track of the numbers of bees coming and going every 30 minutes, along with the brood humidity, temperature and the external ambient temperature to give you an accurate picture of how healthy your hive is at all times.” Hivemind has extended its campaign until the end of May. If you wish to contribute, go to https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/hive- strength-monitor-with-wifi--2#/
The two land use contracts now available for purchase from the ApiNZ website are: • Apiary Land Use Agreement – Land Owner/Beekeeper Profit Share: For those beekeepers offering a crop share arrangement. • Apiary Land Use Agreement – Site Rental: For those beekeepers paying a set apiary site rental or per hive rate to the land owner.
The agreements will be $195 +GST for ApiNZ members and $455 +GST for non-members.
These can be found on the ApiNZ website here: http://apinz.org.nz/land-use-agreement/
The agreements will be personalised to the purchaser, so on application you will need to answer some questions which will be added to your document. Once payment is received this document will be sent to you via e-mail. If you have any questions, please contact the ApiNZ Management Team on 04 471 6254 (Monday to Friday 8.30–5.30) or e-mail info@apinz.org.nz.
