Bee packages
One of the options in order to start and develop a beehive is through bee packages.
The bee package is an artificial hive which ensures healthiness.
Characteristics
It is made up of:
- Approximately 1.200 kg of nurse bees
- A new Queen bee
- A feeder with syrup to meet the first needs.
In order to make the transportation of bees easier, the package is sent in an aired disposable wooden box.
Ventajas
- They do not transport bee broods, thus preventing disease contagion.
- Better health, they can be disinfected more effectively from Varroa.
- They are easy to transport due to their size and weight.
- Correctly developed, they can yield a harvest in the same season.
- Permite contar con población pecoreadora en los momentos óptimos: flujo de néctar o polinización.
- They count on a forager population during the time of major nectar flow or pollination.
