This study observes the managerial practices and perceptions of beekeepers during the decline of bees, in a context of high and increasing bee mortality that approaches 30% per year in Europe. Data collection was done through questionnaires and interviews with French beekeepers between 2018 and 2019. We analyze the results under the prism of stakeholder theory to identify all stakeholders (veterinarians, trainers, farmers, governments, associations, consumers) interacting with beekeepers. The results of the study are used to make recommendations to stakeholders. Due to the high mortality rate of 30% of bees, beekeepers renew at least 30% of their hives each year. They specifically request training on bee health and hive management (for amateur beekeepers). All beekeepers want organic farmers and want a medium-term cooperation between beekeepers, organic farmers and the government (through the application of environmental laws). All stakeholder aware of the disappearance of this pollinator-bees must act quickly to protect and conserve them on earth. This means that the stakeholders at their level must implement strategies of ecological transition in their behavior, because it is a question of saving the pollinators for the Welfare of the Society.
