Beekeeping | Honey Production Process | Raising Queen Bees Cells

Beekeeping is the process of keeping and producing bees to obtain products such as honey, wax, royal jelly, venom, propolis and other products that they produce. The place where the bees are kept is called a hive.

Beekeeping (or apiculture) is the maintenance of bee colonies, commonly in artificial beehives. Honey bees in the genus Apis are the most commonly kept species but other honey producing bees such as Melipona stingless bees are also kept. Beekeepers (or apiarists) keep bees to collect honey and other products of the hive: beeswax, propolis, bee pollen, and royal jelly. Other sources of beekeeping income include pollination of crops, raising queens, and production of package bees for sale. Bee hives are kept in an apiary or "bee yard".
The discovery of a copper horn in Lorestan province, carved in the shape of a bee and belonging to about 1200 BC, which is now in the Brussels city museum. It shows the ancient familiarity of Iranians with this useful insect. During the Achaemenid period, keeping bees was very popular in Iran.
The important feature of honey is that it does not spoil for a long time. It is also used to keep some ingredients away from spoilage, for example, they mix blackberries with it and turn it upside down every few days so that the honey reaches everywhere, and in this way the blackberries do not spoil for a year. Another thing is that this substance loses its nutritional value only if it is exposed to more than 60 degrees.
Honey is the only natural food that does not spoil.
The keeping of bees by humans, primarily for honey production, began around 10,000 years ago. A sample of 5,500-year-old honey was unearthed from the grave of a noblewoman during archaeological excavations in 2003 near the town of Borjomi, Georgia. Ceramic jars found in the grave contained several types of honey, including linden and flower honey. Domestication of bees can be seen in Egyptian art from around 4,500 years ago; there is also evidence of beekeeping in ancient China, Greece, and Maya.
In the modern era, beekeeping is often used for crop pollination and the collection of byproducts, such as wax and propolis. The largest beekeeping operations are agricultural businesses but many small beekeeping operations are run as a hobby. As beekeeping technology has advanced, beekeeping has become more accessible, and urban beekeeping was described as a growing trend as of 2016. Some studies have found city-kept bees are healthier than those in rural settings because there are fewer pesticides and greater biodiversity in cities

Thanks for the video. Why do you have plastic on top of the hives?
