A detailed explanation of the key points of high-yield culture techniques of Chinese honeybee

Judging from the current situation, many bee farmers still use the traditional Chinese honeybee breeding technology, which also hinders the high yield of honeybees. Here is a detailed explanation of the key points of high-yield breeding techniques of Chinese honeybee.

I. current situation of Chinese honeybee culture

Chinese honeybee, also known as Chinese bee, center and Dulong bee, is a unique species in China. It has strong collecting power, and the utilization rate of honey collected is very high. It also has good adaptability, can collect honey for a long time, and has good anti-mite and disease resistance ability. It's a very good bee species.

But at present, the population of large-scale breeding of Chinese honeybee still occupies a small number, and there is a certain vacancy in the market, so it is a good choice for breeding projects.

2. Technical points of Chinese honeybee culture

1. Cultivate a good queen bee.

The selection of excellent queen bees plays a very important role in rejuvenating the colony, improving the production performance of the colony and increasing the yield of honey. The queen bee colony with strong fecundity, strong colony and strong collecting power was selected as the population to cultivate the queen bee. As Chinese bees have the habit of dividing bees, it is necessary to choose a new queen who is weak, and it is best to breed a new king in late autumn to replace the old king, so as to control the distribution of bees in the spring next year, and keep the whole colony using the new queen throughout the year.

2. Collecting and replenishing wild Chinese bees

Beehives are placed in front of the eaves, under big trees, or in higher places such as rocks. Regularly check whether there is a colony into the box, if into the box, and so on after the bees return to the nest in the evening, you can close the nest door and move back, after passing the box, you will lure the beehive.

3. Reasonable extraction of honey

Enter the nectar period, according to the honey situation to determine the honey extraction time, generally in the sunny morning honey, when the nest spleen honey room has been full, part of the honey chamber cover or most of the honey room protruding in the shape of a fisheye.

4. Chinese bee management

(1) Prevention of bee theft

We should choose places with rich honey sources to keep bees, keep strong groups all the year round, and keep enough feed to prevent bee theft between Chinese bee colonies.

(2) Prevention and control of bee diseases and insect pests

On the one hand, the new king of disease resistance should be selected to ensure adequate feed and feed strong colonies; do a good job of sanitary disinfection and burn sick bees. On the other hand, it is necessary to control the natural enemies of locusts, wasps, ants, toads, spiders and so on.

Warm hint: if there are conditions, you can also use single and double king seasonal breeding technology. In the honey gathering season, one box of double king is used to make the bee colony reach a strong colony state, that is, the worker bee reaches 40-50,000 / box, which can increase the honey yield, while raising the single king in the non-honey-collecting season can reduce the number of worker bees to 10,000-20,000 / box, which can reduce the feeding cost.
