What can I do to improve honey production when keeping bees?

It's useless to breed bees. Xiaobian once saw a sentence in an article published by a beekeeper, "Strong bees need to raise people, while weak bees need to be raised", which means that the benefits generated by strong bees can support people, while weak bees need to be raised by people. The main income of breeding Chinese bees depends on honey production. If honey production is high, the income of breeding bees will be high, while if honey production is low, the income of breeding bees will be low. So how to breed bees, in order to increase honey production and increase the income of breeding bees?

1. Site selection, first of all, we should start from the site where bees are placed. Choose a good site where bees are placed. Only when there are plenty of pollen and honey sources outside can bees have honey to collect. If there are few flowers near the site where bees are placed, it is useless for bees to be good and strong, because bees have no honey to collect at all. So we can move the bees to places with many honey sources, such as orchards or places with many honey sources. In the transition, the bees should be packed in the daytime, and the honeycomb frame should be pressed with foam battens, covered with a beehive cover, and tied with a rope, so that when we transport the bees, the beehive frame will not bump into the bees. Do these things well during the day. When the bees return to the hive at night, close the hive door, transport it to the place where the bees are placed, put the hive in place, and open the hive door the next day.

2. The bee colony is strong, and many bees are collected. We can find that the honey spleen of weak bees is always a little, or the honey spleen with insufficient honey source is always a little, because the bee colony is too weak, the number of bees is small, and they have to take care of their larvae and collect honey. How can they collect more honey when the number of bees is insufficient? Therefore, it is necessary to merge the weak bees before the big honey flow comes, cultivate the strong bees to collect honey, and cultivate the collecting bees before the big honey flow comes, so as to improve the honey yield. Just like many people, the work is fast, and ten people move bricks faster than one person. The same is true for bees. A large number of bees, a strong swarm of bees, and more bees can be collected, because flowers wait for no one, and there is no honey to be collected after the flowers are finished.

3. Bee-splitting fever will also affect the honey yield. Once worker bees have a bee-splitting fever, they will go slow, do not collect honey, and just want to divide bees. Therefore, we have to eliminate the bee-splitting fever. There are many ways to eliminate the bee-splitting fever. We can replace the old queen bee in advance, change it in advance, and choose the right time to cultivate a group of collecting bees. It is not easy to divide bees. Xiaobian here is the south, and the queen bee will be replaced during this period of winter, but when litchi blooms, the bee colony is also hot. Unfortunately, there are no drones now, otherwise Xiaobian wants to try to change the queen bee again, perhaps because of the bee species! When this article was published, it was only over a month before the arrival of the great honey flow. Now, if it is possible to change to a new queen bee, just a batch of collected worker bees will be cultivated. I don't know, right?
