蒙阴 / Mengyin

蒙阴 / Mengyin is the Shandong mountain field site in EP261 “蜜蜂危机”：如果失去蜜蜂，世界将会怎样？. 段农裕 reports there during the locust-flower season, using the county’s slopes and elevation differences to show why beekeepers can sometimes extend a short bloom window by moving hives within a mountain landscape.

The source also makes Mengyin a practical case for migratory beekeeper livelihood. Beekeepers there are not just producing honey; they are managing hive placement, transfer timing, local farmer relations, weather changes, and the risk that a single hailstorm or pesticide exposure can erase expected income from a flower season.
