The Saskatraz Breeding Process
Recurrent natural selection is at the heart of the Saskatraz breeding process. This approach ensures that each bee in your package has superior varroa tolerance.
These bees come from lines that maintain prosperity even under pressure, augmenting your hive’s economic viability. You’re not only welcoming bees into your hive but becoming a part of an evolutionary journey towards healthier bee populations.
