How much is a case of bees?

Bees are the source of producing honey, propolis and royal jelly, and they are also responsible for spreading pollen to plants. Now many people make a living by raising bees, which can bring a lot of income to themselves in a year. There are also some newcomers who want to join the team of breeding bees, but they don't know the price of bees. Let's take a look at how much the bees cost a box.

How much is a case of bees?

Bees are generally not sold by boxes, but by boxes (spleen). Prices vary from place to place, usually about 200 yuan a box. At the same time, the price of bees is different in different seasons, and it is usually more expensive in winter. Moreover, bees with good breeds are also more expensive. For example, the price of Chinese honeybees is more than 20% higher than that of other bees, and there is a box of more than queen bees, which costs half the price.

The difference between Chinese bee and Italian bee

The main results are as follows: 1. Chinese bees are good at making use of sporadic honey sources, have a good sense of smell and hard-working, and can collect them when a few sporadic honey sources bloom in the outside world to maintain the normal reproduction of the colony. Under the same circumstances, the Italian bee colony needs supplementary feeding, otherwise it will be hungry.

2. Chinese bees fly flexibly and are not easy to be preyed on by wasps, swallows, sparrows, dragonflies and so on. When there are many wasps in mountain areas, Chinese bees can also live well, with natural resistance to mites and American larvae, while Italian bees do not.

3. Chinese bee has strong adaptability, the ability of cold resistance and disease resistance is better than Italian bee, the time of work collection is much longer than that of Italian bee, and it is later in winter than Italian bee to enter the overwintering state, and some high-quality winter honey, such as pipa honey, can be collected. Spring is earlier than Italian bee to work and spring reproduction.

4. Chinese honeybees pollinate native plants in both breadth and depth than western honeybees. Chinese native bees are good at making use of sporadic honey sources, objectively pollinating all kinds of plants, and making special contributions to maintaining the reproduction of plants, especially in some deep mountainous areas. it plays an irreplaceable role in promoting ecological balance. On the other hand, because the West Italian bee basically does not collect sporadic honey sources, it makes far less contribution to the ecological environment than the Chinese native bee.

5. The upper body of the Chinese bee is mainly gray-black, with yellow rings, while the tail of the Italian bee is obvious in the front half yellow and half black in the back, which is larger than that of the middle bee. On the beehive, the bees must spread out, the nest doors are staggered, and the Italian bees can be arranged word by word, neatly and tightly.

How can we raise bees well?

1. Wang you: the reproduction speed and yield of the colony mainly depends on the quality of the queen bee. The young and robust queen bee has strong fecundity, rapid population development, large colony, strong worker bee gathering ability, active work, less bee fever and higher yield. Therefore, during the breeding period, the excellent queen bee should be cultivated early from the high-yielding strong colony in order to replace the inferior or aging queen bee.

2. Strong group: strong group is the basis of high yield, while the strong group of Chinese bee is based on the actual situation of Chinese bee, which can not be compared with the strong group of Italian bee, and each period has its own strong group standard. Only a strong group can give full play to the spawning power of the queen bee, resist the invasion of diseases and insect pests, and spend the summer and autumn safely.

3. Honey feet: sufficient honey storage in the nest can enable bees to tide over the difficulties when there is a lack of honey sources in the wild. If there is a lack of honey in the nest, it will cause the colony to feel uneasy, abandon the larvae, stop the eggs, and even steal bees and fly away. Therefore, in reproduction, under the premise of not hindering the expansion of the egg circle, we should always keep enough honey in the nest to encourage worker bees to spit more milk to feed insects and cultivate new bees with large bodies. If there is not enough honey in the nest, artificial supplementary feeding is needed.

4. New spleen: Chinese bee likes the new spleen and hates the old spleen. The new spleen has big eyes and fresh wax. the queen bee especially likes to lay eggs on the new spleen and reproduce fast. the worker bees cultivated are strong and strong, and it is not easy to nest insects in the colony. Therefore, we should seize the favorable opportunity to make more new spleen to replace the old spleen. Especially in the peak period of reproduction, the peak period of honey flow and the later stage of bee division, we should pay close attention to the spleen.

5. Dense: Chinese bees love to be dense, so they should always keep their spleen in proportion, so as to protect the spleen of bees, prevent nesting insects and other enemy attacks, and also help to keep warm and moisturize. Practice has proved that the bee colony consumes honey in winter and is safe to survive the winter. The dense population potential in the nectar period can promote the rapid storage of honey, early maturity and high yield. The density in the summer period can make the group retreat less and make it difficult for the enemy to invade.
