Study of the influence of stimulating feeding of bees during spring time

Abstract

In the spring time sometimes Nosema occurs and as a result we have a number of essential losses, such as lots of dead bee families, as well weak families with a small number of bees because of their low resistance. One of the methods by which it is possible to increase growth and productivity of bee families is early stimulating nutrition. The purpose of the investigation is to study the stimulating feeding of bees during spring time with using of probiotic. Using of "Bilaxan" probiotic in bees feeding stimulates increasing of bee families power raised in horizontally hives by 8.29%, queens prolificacy and caped brood with 2.51-31.41% and productivity by 12.24% and respectively in multistage hives with 3.89-5.56%; 8.48-32.45%, and 4.94-12.47%.
