What should be paid attention to in bee keeping? beekeeper tell you

Because bees live in the wild, they have certain requirements for the environment, and bees live in the environment, so they also have certain requirements for the environment. We want to raise bees well, and bees also have their own biological characteristics, so we also need breeding technology. Therefore, in general, the bee tribe believes that it can be divided into three aspects: environmental conditions, bee conditions, and beekeeping technology.

Environmental conditions required by bees

In terms of environmental conditions, we can classify them in detail, which are divided into three aspects: nectar source conditions, climatic conditions, and nearby environments. Let's take a look at the requirements of these three conditions.

First: nectar source conditions Because bees need to survive in places with many sources of nectar, one is to eat, and the other is to store and nurture young bees, so this condition is considered more important by the bee tribe. A large nectar source, but also an abundant small nectar source, under the conditions that these two conditions are met, basically the nectar source problem can be solved.

Second: climatic conditions Bees are actually more suitable for living in places that are neither cold nor hot. However, due to the large differences in climate in different parts of my country, it is difficult to find such places. Therefore, in terms of climatic conditions, it is best to choose places with short winters and mild climate throughout the year. Winter should not exceed one or two months, otherwise it will be more demanding for our beekeeping friends.

Third: the surrounding environment The surrounding environment includes whether the water source is clean, whether there is pollution such as factories, whether there is a molasses factory nearby, whether the bee farm is uphill from the mine, some mines have a large magnetic field, which affects the positioning of bees, and places such as high-voltage lines are not suitable. Suitable for keeping bees. At the same time, we must also pay attention to the placement of the bee colony, and we must follow the habits of the bees.

In terms of bee conditions, the bee tribe divides this condition into two categories, mainly including bee species and bee quality.

Fourth: types of bees Since the bees raised now mainly include Chinese bees and Western bees, and bees in different regions have different habits, the bee products produced by different bee species are not exactly the same. Therefore, when we are preparing beekeeping, we should also pay attention to the selection of bee species, and determine whether our local conditions are suitable for breeding a certain bee species, and whether it is suitable for chasing flowers and capturing honey. In fact, the bee tribe thinks that the main consideration is whether If the climate is good and the conditions for chasing flowers and honey are available, it is better to breed Italian bees. If it is only cultivated in a fixed place, it is better for Chinese bees. From the habit of bees, it is recommended to use local bee species, which are more suitable for local climatic conditions. If we choose Italian bees, it is best to have a preliminary investigation on Italian bees. Not every area is suitable for breeding, nor is it All beekeepers have the conditions to chase flowers and win honey.

Fifth: the excellent traits of bees In terms of the excellent traits of bees, because there are now bee species bred by breeding farms, such as hybrids with strong nectar collection ability and strong pulp production ability, we can check whether it is suitable for a certain type of bee according to local climatic conditions. The directional hybrid queen bees cultivated by some breeding farms can also be cultivated through long-term selection and breeding in the process of their own breeding.

For breeding technology, the bee tribe thinks that the key technologies that should be mastered include feeding technology, king breeding technology, bee separation technology, colony technology, common bee pest control technology, autumn propagation technology, overwintering technology, spring propagation technology, and oversummer technology. In general, if we can master these techniques and keep learning at the same time, we will soon have a more systematic understanding of bee farming, so as to designate our own effective and feasible farming plan and embark on the road of beekeeping.

As far as precautions are concerned, Benefitbee believes that the key aspects are feeding, greed, and blind treatment. Some friends believe in the statement that bees do not need to be fed. It is also a common phenomenon in beekeeping. Some friends keep dividing bees, resulting in the bee colony becoming weaker and weaker. In the end, there are only a few spleen bees left. The colony suffers from various diseases and insect pests, and finally the breeding fails; blind treatment is also a problem. The more serious problems in bee farming, some friends just take the bees to see a little change, the specific reasons are not clear, just use drugs, a lot of drugs, and finally a very simple problem, all the bees are treated to death, in Benefitbee There are not a few people like this around, especially the treatment of Italian bees. Some friends treat all the bees in the apiary at one time and die.
