Popis: |
Colony management is very various and depends on the beekeeper or person responsible for the apiary. Colony management in testing apiary can significantly influence final result of the test. The basic request in establishing and later in maintaining colonies is to enable similar (same) conditions for all colonies on the test apiary. It is recommended to use standard (most common) hives for the test. It is not recommended to use queen excluder. Enough space needs to be given for each colony in proportion to its individual development. Hives should be placed on the stands that enable easy access to each colony and to reduce drifting of bees. Water supply must be managed independently from the situation in the surrounding of the apiary and has to secure continues supply of pathogen free water. It is recommended to use wax foundation (free of residues), package bees and test queens for colony establishing. In the first weeks after establishing, colonies need to be fed with the same food in similar quantity at the same time. |
