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.]]> 2019-11-14 19:22:58 UTC https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/411440536 Parts 16044111 https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/411985548 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.]]> 2019-11-15 18:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/411985548 Raising the Bees 16044111 https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/414160792 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.

The beehive is inserted into the extractor, and the hive is spun around and around. eventually, the honey comes out due to centrifugal force.]]> 2019-11-20 17:43:43 UTC https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/414171658 Size 16044111 https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/414806994 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).]]> 2019-11-21 17:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/414806994 Source 16044111 https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/415395839 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.]]> 2019-11-22 17:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/415395839 Significance 16044111 https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/415530109 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. ]]> 2019-11-22 21:21:15 UTC https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/415530109 What is pollination? 16044111 https://padlet.com/16044111/9iuk6pvautbo/wish/415537610 Dictionary Definition:
