Beekeeping is a profession, art and craft !
Discover the beekeeping!
Beekeeping is no longer the quiet rural activity it used to be in the past.
This
book is for beginners, current and future beekeepers and for the
‘general reader’ to find out what happens in beekeeping and how the
beekeepers talk about it.
This book walks through different
situations that arise in beekeeping but it does not present "dry"
instructions about beekeeping techniques but adds information about
beekeeping through stunning stories told by professional beekeepers.
Here
you can find 21 beekeeping stories (some of them with unexpected
endings) from Angola, Argentina, Australia, Bulgaria, China, England,
Italy, Kuwait, Libya, Mexico, the Republic of Macedonia, the Republic of
Palau, Russia, Spain, Serbia, and Romania.
The stories offer techniques, tricks, secrets, humor and bee keeping practices for how to breed bees in a beehive.
Each of the plots is based on real events and is rich in thematic information on:
-how to capture a bee swarm and keeping it in a hive or in a skep;
-how to make nucleus colonies;
-how to transfer bees to a new beehive;
-how to bring together bees from several hives in a single one;
