Raising and taking care of bees is a hard and tedious task. Very few beekeepers are able to sustain a colony of bees for over a year. Even among those who can, many end up quitting the business after a few years, because of various reasons, such as high costs, low honey yield, hard work needed, and disease infestations of the colonies.

Beekeeping has many aspects to it. The process of beekeeping involves raising and caring for the bees, extracting the honey, and defending the bees from intruders.

To raise and care for the bees, one must buy a queen bee and a hive. The queen bee will mate with the drone bees in the area and start laying eggs. as soon as these eggs hatch and fully develop, they start taking care of the queen bee and making honey. the worker bees will take care of the queen from this point forward, and now you only need to provide food and shelter for the workers.

Honey extractors are used to get honey from bees. The beehive is inserted into the extractor, and the hive is spun around and around. eventually, the honey comes out due to centrifugal force.

Beekeeping is a huge industry, reaching millions of dollars in value. Since a bee's most useful product is honey, there are large machines the size and shape of witches' cauldrons that extract honey from beehives in mass amounts. A lot of people don't support this industry, and some movies have been made with the main theme being that bee farms are bad (The Bee Movie, 2007).

Honey bees fly 55,000 miles and visit two million flowers to produce a pound of honey. each honey bee produces just a twelfth of a teaspoon of honey in her lifetime, and every ounce is fundamental to the hive. Honey is a result of a lot of hard work on the bees' part, but beekeepers steal all the honey in the hive and replace it with a cheap and unhealthy sugar substitute. The bees then overwork themselves, trying to replenish their now-gone honey supply for the winter.

Honey is considered an added sugar when it comes to USDA guidelines. It is not classified as a fruit or vegetable.

Without pollination, most plants would not bee able to reproduce. This would mean that there would bee no more apples, cherries, almonds, and much more. Bees have the important responsibility of pollinating over half the world's plants.
