Talking about the Reasons of Low Benefit of Beekeeping

Beekeeping is a traditional breeding industry. It not only provides a wealth of bee products to the society, but also provides people with a less profitable and quick way to make a fortune. Beekeeping is also a highly technical work. It is necessary to strictly follow the laws of nature and correctly handle the relationship between bee colonies and the weather and honey sources. Otherwise, it will result in low bee production efficiency and cause personal losses. The reasons for the low effectiveness of bee-keeping bees are as follows: 1. Natural conditions: Due to natural conditions, the lack of nectar plants in the region, insufficient powder sources, or nectar-producing plants, but affected by climate, soil and other factors, flowering does not The secret honey and the auxiliary honey source are few and blindly invest in feeding. As a result, bee colonies are unable to reproduce, resulting in too much investment and very little recycling. 2. In the rearing process of bee species, bee species that are not suitable for the geographical environment and climate of the local bee species are selected, or the bee king of the same race is used for a long period of time, and it is not willing to invest in the replacement of the new queen bee, resulting in the degradation of the overall bee colony. Combat power, while affecting apiculture production. 3. Feeding and management aspects 3.1 Cultivation of age-appropriate bees Unqualified age Cultivation of age-appropriate bees is the key to bee-keeping and high-yield production. During springtime, bee colonies did not breed, or the bee colony was very strong, but no age-appropriate bee collection adapted to the nectar stage was developed. With regard to the eucalyptus trees in Changbai Mountain, most nectar-producing periods begin in late June and early July. The beekeepers will be breeding age-appropriate bees according to this period. However, as the climate warms, the flowering season slightly increases year by year. In 1998, it was already 5-7 days ahead of schedule, that is, eucalyptus had been secreted honey on June 23-25 ​​(different geographic locations and different). For those who are inexperienced in beekeeping, they have not been able to master this natural change well, but they have also cultivated their age-appropriate bees blindly according to the old law. The result is age-appropriate bees and unpleasant age. When the bees are strong, they have already flown to the honey. In the late or final period, the harvest was minimal. Moreover, at this time, there is little or no honey source in the outside world, and more feed is needed to maintain the group potential and increase the investment. 3.2 Only cares for production, ignoring the two major sources of honey, eucalyptus and sunflower. After the flowering period of eucalyptus, it is followed by the nectar of sunflowers (about 20 days apart). After the eucalyptus honey is over, it is the reproduction and adjustment stage of the bee colony. The strength and weakness of the bee colony vary greatly, and some weak groups basically have no reproducibility. However, some bee-keepers only care about the immediate interests, regardless of the condition of bee colonies, they are all in the sunflower period (it has been proved that the production of sunflower honey is a loss of bees). On the surface, some honey was harvested to make up for some of the losses, but the group momentum was completely weakened, the bee colony was dragged, and it was very difficult for breeding overwintering bees. Seriously, bee colonies were difficult to overwinter and directly affected the next year. Bee breeding and production. The so-called missed trade was due to small losses, but it did not mean that the sunflowers were unappreciable. We must organize honey collections in a rational way. According to the actual situation of the bees, we should collect and gather honey by strong groups, and the weak groups should focus on breeding, focusing on the autumn honey and the strong bees. Group to lay the foundation for the next year. 3.3 Intrinsic factors of bee colony When some bee colonies collect honey, they look very strong on the surface and there are many bees, but the yield is not high. There may be poor bee species; there are few bees in the field; new and old bees are not able to be linked together; their collection power is poor; they are caused by pests and diseases, lack of combat effectiveness, or being busy with bees. Therefore, it is necessary to observe, diligently inspect, through the surface phenomenon outside the box, and adjust the processing in time so that it can be put into production in a timely manner. 3.4 Qiutong Management Factors According to climate change, timely management of leeches, thorough eviction and feed supplementation before entering the pits, cultivation of strong overwintering-aged bees should be adapted to local conditions, and efforts should be made to vigorously ensure the safe wintering of bee colonies for the next year's production. Build the foundation. Must not be ashamed, because the leak is simple. The non-investment of this investment will artificially affect the wintering quality of bee colonies and disrupt the annual production plan. 4. Placement of bee sites 4.1 Sticking to the bee site Most beekeepers have a “path”. They always go to the original place to put bees year after year, and they think that they have had a good harvest in previous years. Even if this year's harvest fails, it will be closed next year. Or this bee line is very familiar, without labor. I do not know the impact of nature. For example, great changes have taken place in logging, climate change, and the collection and release of bees, thereby reducing the production of bee colonies and reducing the benefits. 4.2 Blind approach Some Bumblebees listen to hearsay, as long as I heard that the bee-laying site is good and I did not conduct a field trip, I rushed to that site. The result is delays, timing, and losses. For those with experience, they keep in touch with local bee friends who have local honey sources. They can communicate with each other at any time and communicate with each other about their climate and nectar, reducing the blindness and directionality of the bees, and saving time due to the search for venues. Wasting and unnecessary expenses. Achieve timely attack, targeted. 4.3 Accumulation of bees on the bee site is crowded, resulting in "more porridge and less porridge" and "more bees and less honey." For example, the Erdaobaihe River in Changbai Mountain in 1998 was said to be a big year. The bees that rushed to Erdaobaihe were particularly large, causing a bee farm every 15m. The same was true for the sunflower field in 1998. Because the eucalyptus mulberry was owed, some people wanted to make some compensation at the sunflower field. As a result, there were 30 bee farms in the 500m2 sunflower field, and the result was that the colony was not able to eat enough. Talk about shaking honey. 5, social environment, the relevant departments of the bees on the place of arbitrary charges, the excessive allocation of the cost, card, take, to the phenomenon is serious. Such as: the loss of natural resources received by the forestry department, forest management fees; the government's public security management fees, temporary migrant workers, family planning fees. There are different standards for fees and charges. If you want to talk about it, you need to do it. There is a slight delay. Beekeepers are overburdened and affect the normal operation of beekeeping. There are also crop detoxification and illegal detoxification activities that interfere with bee-keeping production. This has prevented beekeepers from investing in bee-keeping production and affecting income. 6. Management and management The whole apiculture operation management must be “two-handed”, ie, beekeeping production on the one hand and product sales on the other. This is the basic method for invigorating the bees, and it is also the fundamental way for beekeeping to become rich. 6.1 Beekeeping production factors Most beekeepers devote their energy to honey collection. They believe that the amount of honey collected is a measure of the level of economic income. It also despises the auxiliary income of other bee products such as royal jelly, propolis, beeswax, and so on. The waste and loss. 6.2 Product sales factors For bee products collected by themselves, some beekeepers wait for acquisitions at home and wait for acquisitions. They do not actively understand the market and how much laziness they can sell. The real rich person is to spend the leisure time of beekeeping on the sales of his products and bring the products to the market. Hard work, walking the streets, selling directly, door-to-door delivery. To strive for higher efficiency, enrich their bee farms, and steadily expand their beekeeping industry. It can be seen that there are many factors affecting the low benefit of beekeeping, but as long as we seize every link, we will study the knowledge of beekeeping assiduously, master the knowledge of beekeeping technology and management knowledge, combine theory with practice, follow the objective law, and give full play to it. The subjective initiative of oneself. Be sure that the road to wealth will widen and extend at your feet in the near future; it will produce sweeter honey, like the diligent bees.
