03/30/2007 (KFSN) -- A Valley beekeeper who's seen a huge number of his bees die off this year took his concerns to congress on Thursday.
A house committee led by Merced Congressman Dennis Cardoza held hearings on the mysterious deaths of bee colonies across the country in recent years.
Los Banos beekeeper Gene Brandi was among those who testified. He and other beekeepers want the federal government to fund more research on these deaths.
Bees are critical to Valley agriculture because they pollinate fruit and nut trees.
