Nine tips for beekeeping

In fact, honeybees are not a very easy species to raise, but China's honey market is quite chaotic. Although there are many beekeepers, it is difficult to buy real native honey, so the price of good honey on the market is not cheap.

Nine tips for beekeeping

1. The beehive should be kept in a cool place with the door facing south. Bees have phototaxis at night, so they should be kept in the dark at night.

2. Bee life requires flowing air and keeping a certain amount of humidity in the box.

3. In summer, the distance between beehives should be slightly larger to reduce the temperature in the box. In winter, the distance between beehives should be slightly smaller to facilitate heat preservation.

4. Keep enough food and water in the box in winter. Don't open the box easily.

5. Do not open the hive or shake the hive when the bee is overwintering, otherwise it will speed up the death of the bee.

6. After the queen bee makes a "cackle" sound in the royal platform, it will be feathered the next day, and the virgin queen bee will fly out of the nest the next day to identify the location and be familiar with the nest door.

7. The spawning power of the queen bee can be seen from the size and development progress of the oviposition circle. Where the oviposition circle is large, the development of the larvae on the same egg and spleen is consistent, indicating that the queen bee has strong spawning power and good quality.

8. When the bees are divided into groups, they first cultivate some drones to build a royal platform and cultivate a new queen bee. When the new queen bee is about to Eclosion 1-2 days after the king platform is sealed, about half of the bees support the old queen bee to fly out of the hive, leaving the old nest to the new queen bee and the remaining bees.

9. With the departure of the colony, the bees are mainly young and capable of working, and most of the bees left in the original colony are young bees. The bees usually fly out from 10:00 to 3 p.m., on a warm and sunny day in late spring and early summer.

Is it easy to keep bees?

Bees are not easy to keep. Honeybees are now divided into Chinese bees and Italian bees. Chinese bees are easier to raise than Italian bees. Beekeepers need to be able to bear hardships and stand hard work. Italian bees rely entirely on manual management.

Relatively speaking, in China, if more people want to keep bees well, they must first grasp the key of keeping Chinese bees, mainly Wang you, strong group, honey foot, new spleen and density, and at the same time, they should spend the summer and autumn safely and control diseases and insect pests in time.

What's the use of bees?

1. Honeybees can provide a variety of nutrients for human beings, making people stronger after eating. Honeybee is a high-protein nutrition, its protein content is as high as 75%, in addition to many vitamins and amino acids, these substances are essential nutrients for the normal development of the human body.

2. Honeybee insects can improve human immunity. Protein is not only an important component to maintain the normal immune function of human body, but also an important nutritional component for the production of white blood cells and antibodies in human body. Honeybee protobee just contains a large number of high-quality protein, so people's immune function will be improved rapidly after eating.

3. Honeybees also have the function of diuresis and eliminating edema. The effective substances in bees and bees can quickly expel excess water from the human body, accelerate the metabolism of human blood and water, and play the role of diuresis and elimination of edema. It has obvious therapeutic effect on the symptoms such as edema and adverse urination.

4. Tonifying qi and tonifying blood is also one of the important functions of honeybees, it can accelerate the regeneration and division of human hematopoietic cells, strengthen the function of human hematopoiesis, and play a role in preventing anemia. it has a good recuperating effect on people's symptoms such as cold limbs and dark yellow complexion due to deficiency of qi and blood.

Conditions are needed to raise bees.

I. site conditions

Within a radius of 2.5 km around the site, there should be sufficient main honey sources and auxiliary honey sources, and the main and auxiliary honey sources should be matched appropriately; the site should be selected in the southward near hillside, with sufficient sunshine, high mountains as the screen, natural shade, south wind in summer, north wind in winter, fertile soil, exuberant growth of nectar plants, long flowering period, sufficient water and convenient transportation.

Second, the selection and purchase of bees

The main results are as follows: 1. The purchase time should be from April to May in the north, when the bee colony breeding period, the selection is relatively stable, and the external environment is good, breeding is easy to be successful.

2. Selection method: observing at the door of the nest, workers who go in and out diligently and collect a large proportion of bee pollen are generally lively groups. Then open the box to check, if the worker bee is quiet and does not panic, it shows that the temperament is docile, such as the royal body is large. The foot is thick, the height is wide, the abdomen is long and plump, the whole body is densely covered with fluff, and the spawning is flexible and rapid without panic, indicating that the queen bee is young and strong and has strong spawning power.

3. The arrangement of bee colony: it depends on the size of the site, the number of beekeeping and the season. There are four kinds of arrangement: single-box arrangement, double-box arrangement, staggered arrangement and three-box arrangement.

Before raising bees, breeders first understand the living habits of bees, and then build an environment and site suitable for them to live. It is far more useful to communicate with successful beekeepers, learn more about their techniques and methods and apply them to actual breeding than talking on paper.
