Management techniques of bee feeding in summer

Bee breeding in summer needs to know its breeding knowledge. How much do you know about farming techniques in summer? Next, I will introduce the management technology of bee breeding in summer, hoping to help you.

Management techniques of bee feeding in summer

Location selection

In summer, bees should be placed under a shady tree with ventilation, close to a place with clean water. Set up a 50 ~ 80 cm high box rack to prevent rainwater from invading the nest. The edge of the box frame can be sprinkled with ants to prevent ants from invading.

Replace the queen bee

In order to prevent the aging of queen bees and affect their spawning, more than 80% of the queen bees in the whole bee colony should be replaced with the new queen bees cultivated that year from April to May every year.

Adequate feed

In addition to keeping 2 ~ 3 grids of honey spleen and 1 grid of pollen spleen in each nest, each bee colony should also store 2 ~ 3 grids of sealed honey spleen and 1 ~ 2 grids of pollen spleen, so as to supply bees in short supply at any time.

Reward feeding

Due to the lack of honey powder source in summer, the queen bee lays eggs. Excess honey spleen should be extracted in time and rewarded in time.

Bee feeding management method

1, add spleen to expand the nest in time. Since spring mating, all bees in the north and south have been mating in the same way. When the spleen is tight, every queen bee is tightly packed in a box. What is the so-called? Single spleen to reproduce? . When breeding in early spring, because there is no natural pollen to eat, worker bees secrete less royal jelly, feed less to the queen bee, and the queen bee lays fewer eggs. Therefore, it is necessary to artificially replenish bee pollen in order to breed in early spring. When worker bees eat fresh artificial pollen, they will immediately get excited and take the initiative to secrete royal jelly to feed the queen bee, prompting the queen bee to lay more eggs and lay eggs quickly. In the first frame of reproduction, keratin and spleen with artificial pollen should be added to induce labor, and a blank space should be left for the queen bee to lay eggs.

South spring bee colony, the temperature is suitable, natural pollen is collected, the number of bees is large, and the queen bee lays eggs quickly. Adding spleen can be faster if the larvae are fed enough plasma. In areas where spring breeding is often affected by cold air, the first grid of spleen should be sealed with the second grid, and the second grid should be sealed with the third grid. By the time the third frame is sealed, new bees have left the house one after another, and the number of worker bees will increase day by day. At this time, with the increase of temperature, a small amount of miscellaneous pollen will be collected from the outside. After the third grid is sealed, it can be added to the full box of the nest and spleen.

Later, if the larvae are fed enough pulp, they can add a frame of pink spleen or empty spleen in three to four days. Breeding in spring, it is best to have a single queen and a group of two queens of about 50%. When the average number of boxes is 9- 10, stop adding spleen for 7- 10 days. When there are a large number of worker bees, when they are crowded, add an empty relay box and lift the queen bee cover and spleen. If you want to live in a large number of groups, you can raise more, don't increase the number of groups, or properly control the queen's spawning. In the early stage of honey flow, it is necessary to create more new spleens to let the queen bee lay a large number of eggs, which not only improves the enthusiasm of worker bees to collect honey powder, but also avoids the craze of dividing bees. Nest boxes should be added to 7 boxes of single king and 8 boxes of double king during the honey flow period. At present, bees are transported by opening their nests, and bees are not afraid of being strong. However, it should be noted that it is best not to transport more than 5-6 frames on the box, and it is safer to transport the excess spleen out of the box.

2. Supplementing protein feed to enhance the physique of bees. In most bee farms with poor breeding in spring, the spleen area of frame 1-4 did not expand at first, and the first frame was not covered properly, so the second frame was added in a hurry. Under the influence of cold air, the northwest airflow control will lead to a large number of larvae dragging. Larvae that have been dragged by dry pulp for several times in spring breeding can't breed strong groups.

Beekeepers should always observe, use their brains and study the management technology of bee colonies. For example, in spring, the northwest airflow is controlled to cool down, and the larvae are dragged. What is the reason? We think that the physiological function of honey-secreting bees is affected by the sudden drop of temperature controlled by northwest airflow, which leads to the lack of protein and the inability to secrete royal jelly. But we don't know much about the specific mechanism. I hope this paper can play a role in attracting jade and let scientists thoroughly understand this problem. As long as the northwest air current comes, even if the number of bees is crowded, the powerful groups with powder feet and honey feet will dry up.

At this time, protein should be supplemented to feed bees, and protein should be supplemented with eggs to feed bees. It's cheap and good. Add 1 egg per kilogram of syrup, and it will get better after feeding for three days. In spring breeding, it is necessary to ensure that the larvae are fed with enough pulp, so that the new bees have a long honey collection life and high yield. Therefore, every time the northwest airflow controls the sudden cold air, the bees should be supplemented with protein nutrition. Strong bee colony will not be infected with bee crawling disease during the honey flow period of rape, and it can avoid using drugs during the production period, which is of great practical significance to the production of pollution-free bee products.

3. Do a good job in spring breeding and strengthening the group. If the bee colony is not very strong in the first honey source period of rape, then the bee farm with the number of bees below 5kg per bee colony should focus on reproduction, so don't rush to harvest. When rape is in full bloom, the natural honey powder is sufficient and the temperature is suitable, which is a good season for bee reproduction. Add a new nest base every three days, and by the end of the rape period, it will become a spleen cover. According to 25 yuan's calculation, 4 extra frames of spleen in each group are beneficial to the bumper harvest in the next flowering period, which is worth 100 yuan.

Bees can collect honey during the honey flow period and raise their children correctly. During the day, worker bees don't leave their nests to collect honey, because they have to feed their larvae. Adult worker bees are busy collecting honey and powder during the day and feeding larvae at night. Young bees are busy with their internal work, and they have no feeding ability. During the day, the slurry is slowly eaten by larvae. If you observe the spleen in the afternoon, the larva's serous fluid will dry up. After adult bees feed for one night, the slurry of larvae is enough the next morning. This situation is like a mother raising a baby. When the mother came home from threshing wheat in the field, the child was hungry and crying in bed. It was going to rain heavily soon. The sun-dried wheat in the wheat field at the door will be wet or even washed away by the rain. The mother must harvest the wheat first and then come back to nurse the child. Raising a frame of spleen only consumes 1kg honey during honey flow, but the honey yield is much higher than 1kg.

4, strong group and high yield have skills. Many bee friends use it when they are in full bloom? Kill the goose that lays the golden egg? In practice, they think that the queen bee lays more eggs, so bees should care about feeding larvae instead of going out to collect honey, so they cling to the wrong idea that mass reproduction of bees will affect honey production. Controlling the queen bee's eggs can make worker bees collect more honey. In fact, only in early spring, when a strong colony of bees is bred and a large number of bees are collected, can a bumper harvest be achieved in the honey source period with clear weather. Those bee farms that control the queen bee to lay eggs are not only low in honey, but also not strong in bees. There is only one bee? Bee wealth (honey) is empty, but flowers are weak? A sad situation.

If you want to collect honey with high yield, you can't store honey with your house spleen. Every bee colony should set aside four empty spleens to store honey for bees. Using empty spleen is much more productive than storing honey in house spleen. In spring, most single queen colonies can produce 8-9 frames. During the honey flow period, some bee farms will control the queen bee's spawning to 5-6 cells and lift the spleen into the trunk, but the worker bees are unwilling to store honey in the spleen of the trunk, and will still leave the middle circle for the queen bee to lay eggs. But there is a barrier between the nest and the trunk, so it is impossible for the queen bee to climb onto the trunk to lay eggs. To control the queen bee from laying eggs seriously, only 3-4 cells are used to lay eggs, and there is a lot of fat wax on the box below.

Because worker bees in the middle of the spleen always leave spawning circles and there is not enough place to store honey, so the honey circle nest is raised very high by worker bees and appears? Fat spleen? Phenomenon. In the early stage of honey flow, it is necessary to properly control the amount of eggs laid by the queen bee, about 10 days, and build more new spleen to let the queen bee lay a lot of eggs in the high honey flow period, which can improve the enthusiasm of worker bees to collect honey. It is necessary to keep the single king colony in frame 7 and the double king colony in frame 8 for a long time, and put the newly sealed larval spleen into the relay box from the middle frame of the nest box next to the pulp-taking frame, which is beneficial to the high yield of royal jelly.

The difference between China bees and Italian bees.

Chinese bee, also known as Chinese bee and native bee, is a subspecies of Oriental bee, a unique bee species in China. Italian bees, native to Italy Apennine Peninsula, can show good economic characters when conditions are suitable, but their adaptability is poor in places where winter is long and cold and spring is often hit by cold waves.

China bees are good at using sporadic honey sources, with a keen sense of smell and diligence. They can collect a small number of sporadic honey sources when they bloom outside to maintain the normal reproduction of bees. In the same situation, Italian bees need supplementary feeding, otherwise they will be hungry.

Chinese bees fly flexibly and are not easy to be preyed by wasps, swallows, sparrows and dragonflies. When there are many wasps in mountainous areas, China bees can live well and have natural ability to resist mites and American larval diseases, while Italian bees do not.

China bees have strong adaptability, stronger cold resistance and disease resistance than Italian bees, and the collection time is much longer than Italian bees. In winter, the Italian bees enter the wintering state later, and some high-quality overwintering honey, such as pipa honey, can be collected, and they enter the work and breed in spring earlier than the Italian bees.

China bees pollinate local plants in more breadth and depth than western bees. China native bees are good at objectively pollinating various plants by using sporadic nectar sources, making special contributions to maintaining the reproduction of plants, especially some rare plants in the mountains, and playing an irreplaceable role in promoting ecological balance. However, the contribution of western Italian bees to the ecological environment is far less than that of China native bees, because they basically do not collect sporadic honey sources.

The appearance of China bees is mainly grayish black, and yellow rings appear alternately, while the first half of the tail of Italian bees is yellow and the second half is black, which is larger than that of China bees. On the bee farm, China bees must be scattered, the nests staggered, and Italian bees can be neatly and closely arranged in a row.

Characteristics of bees

Bees go through four stages in their life: eggs, larvae, pupae and adults. Generally, males appear earlier than females, with short life span, and do not undertake the tasks of nesting, storing bee bread and raising offspring. Female bees build nests, collect pollen and nectar, and store them in the nest room. Their life span is longer than that of male bees.

Bees fly at a speed of 20-40 km/h, with an altitude of 1 km, and the effective range of activities is within 2.5 km from the nest. All bees feed on pollen and nectar, and collecting nectar is a very hard work. Only by interviewing 1 100- 1446 flowers can bees get 1 nectar. During the honey flow, 1 bee collects 10 times a day on average, and the amount of nectar carried each time is half of its body weight. Nectar is sucked into the honey sac by bees and mixed with the secretion of mandibular gland? Sucrase, the transformation of sucrose began from now on. After repeated brewing of honey juice, the water is evaporated by constant fan, and the conversion and concentration are accelerated until the honey is completely mature. According to different species, the number of worker bees generally ranges from 12 to more than 50000. They collect nectar and pollen, and if they are bees, they will also send them to specific places, which is obtained by dancing a particularly strict dance. Their duties include making honey, making wax beehives for storing food and living larvae, and taking care of bees and queen bees and keeping the beehives expanding. Bees are a perennial group, and will constantly raise new queen bees. The old queen bee will leave the hive with a group of worker bees and go elsewhere to rebuild her home.

Bees are closely related to some kinds of wasps. The main biological difference between them is that bees (except parasitic bees) feed their young bees with a mixture of pollen and nectar, while wasps feed their young bees with animal food or insects and spiders. In addition to the differences in food preferences, there are also some structural differences. The most basic difference is that wasps are covered with unbranched hair, while bees have at least some branched or feathery hair, and pollen usually adheres to it.

Bees feed entirely on flowers, including pollen and nectar, which are sometimes made into honey for storage. There is no doubt that bees are pollinating it as well as collecting pollen. When bees collect pollen between flowers, they will drop some pollen on the flowers. These fallen pollen are very important because it often causes cross-pollination of plants. The actual value of bees as pollinators is greater than the value of making honey and beeswax.

Drones usually have a short life, do not collect pollen, and are not responsible for feeding young bees. Worker bees are responsible for all the work of nesting and storing food, and usually have special structures to carry pollen. Most bees collect pollen from many kinds of flowers. However, some bees only collect pollen from flowers of certain families, some bees only collect pollen from flowers of certain colors, and some bees only collect pollen from flowers that are related to each other. Bee's mouth is a tool for collecting and carrying pollen, which seems to be able to adapt to different kinds of flowers.

Most bees of Aphidoidea live alone or do not live in groups. If they don't live together, each female builds her own nest (usually in underground caves) and stores food. This kind of bee has no hierarchy. Some solitary bees build chimneys or horns at the nest mouth, while others build nests on trees or twigs and bamboo. Most adult bees living alone don't live long. In some species, adult bees only fly for a few weeks a year, and the rest of the time stay in the nest room in the form of eggs, larvae, pupae and young bees. Solitary bees provide all the food needed for the full development of larvae when they are sealed. Social bees, such as bumblebees and bees, gradually feed their larvae.
