One of the major concerns of the beekeeping industry , worldwide, is referred to pathogens that threaten the hives (viruses , bacteria, parasites , etc.) and which cause various diseases that affect both the population density of the apiaries as total production.
As a result of trade globalization, countries are in
constant risk of disease introduction into their territory . Therefore, to have a Epidemiological model to assess the risk of the likelihood of entry and spread of diseases, and in this case , pathogens affecting honey bees in Spain , models help increase biosecurity and animal health to ensure trade in bee products with greater health security.
