How to raise bees?

1, China bee and Italian bee are very common in bee breeding. Chinese bee is a kind of bee in China, also known as native bee. It has strong adaptability to China's natural environment and can survive with a little honey. Therefore, bees in China are suitable for breeding in mountainous areas with complex terrain and scattered honey sources. ?

Italian bees are imported from abroad. Its advantage is that it can maintain a strong population and has a very strong ability to collect large honey sources. It is more suitable for breeding in plain areas with simple terrain and concentrated honey sources.

Second, living habits?

1, bees are social insects. Their food is flowers. Bees generally live in beehives made of beeswax secreted by worker bees.

2. A bee colony is mainly composed of a queen bee, tens of thousands of worker bees and thousands of drones. The queen bee is responsible for laying eggs and secreting queen bee pheromones. The drone is responsible for mating with the newly released queen bee. All the work of the bee colony is undertaken by the worker bees. The queen bee is not the leader of the bee colony. The leader of the bee colony is a worker bee.

Third, beekeeping tools?

1, when beekeeping, you must prepare some beekeeping tools, such as beehive, nest spleen, nest bottom, bee hat, bee sweeper, etc. Beehive is the most basic tool for beekeeping. ?

2. According to different bee species, beehives can be divided into medium-sized beehives and Italian beehives. According to different uses, it can be divided into traditional beehives and live beehives. According to different specifications, it can be divided into traditional beehives and live beehives. 10 standard beehive, 12 square beehive, 16 horizontal beehive, etc. Try to choose live beehives.

Fourth, the source of bee species?

1, the premise of breeding bees is that there must be at least one group of bees. Italian bees can basically be bought on farms. Besides purchasing, Chinese bees can also go to the wild to collect wild Chinese bees. ?

2. When catching, you can use honeybee traps to trap bees during the high incidence of separation or flight of bees, or you can collect wild bees or honeycombs after discovery. Whether trapping or collecting, we should master the habits of bees in China. ?

5. Bee colony management?

1, bee colony management is not only the focus of bee breeding, but also a major difficulty. The technical level mainly includes bee master, group merger, king introduction and so on. ?

2. Bee colony division refers to the natural or artificial division of a bee colony into two or more bee colonies, and the merger of two or more bee colonies refers to the merger of two or more bee colonies into one bee colony for certain needs. The introduction of the king refers to the re-intervention or replacement of the queen because of her death or old age. The impact of climate change on bee colonies will be particularly obvious. So there are some differences in the management of bees in different seasons. ?

Sixth, feeding work?

1, bees have the habit of storing food when eating nectar. Although bees generally don't need artificial feeding, they can't lack artificial feeding in some special cases. ?

2. The feeding of bee colony is mainly divided into supplementary feeding and reward feeding. Supplementary feeding is to feed bees when their honey storage is insufficient. The main purpose is to provide a food base for the survival of bees. The purpose of incentive breeding is to promote population reproduction, which is generally carried out in spring, autumn or when other groups need rapid reproduction.

Seven, disease prevention?

1, beekeeping, like other aquaculture, should prevent diseases. If the disease breaks out, bees in the whole field may be destroyed. In fact, bees have many diseases. ?

2. Bee diseases include larva rot and cystic larva disease, bee mites (harmful to Italian bees) and nest worms (harmful to China bees), parasites, wasps, ants and spiders. So beekeepers should not only take precautions, but also find and deal with pests and diseases in time.
