Description

Beekeeping, also apiculture, management of colonies of bees for the production of honey and other hive products and for the pollination of crops. Beekeeping usually refers to the husbandry of the European honey bee, but it may also refer to management of other species of social bees, such as the Indian honey bee, the dwarf honey bee, or stingless bees. Groups of hives are called apiaries, and a beekeeper may also be called an apiarist or apiculturist. Honey bees are an incredibly beneficial resource to have. In addition to being fantastic pollinators, they provide us with a number of useful products such as honey, bee pollen, royal jelly, bees wax, and propolis, which can be traded, sold, or used personally. Many of these products are great for personal health and are just plain delicious! Beekeeping is also a highly rewarding hobby to take up and provides a sense of gratification looking after your own hive and receiving valuable products in return!
