Beekeeper for trial/ Beekeeper for a Day

At present, the decline of pollinators in the landscape poses a significant problem due to the erosion of ecological bonds, the reduction of biodiversity and, last but not least, the reduction of both qualitative and quantitative parameters of insectile crop yields, thus potentially compromising food security. The honeybee is considered to be the most important and numerous pollinator, offering, among other things, a variety of valuable products that are used in many industries. As a result, the increasingly frequent flat-out collapses of bee colonies are of considerable concern. Start-up beekeepers are often mentioned in connection with this problem, with very limited opportunities to acquire the necessary beekeeping expertise and, in particular, beekeeping practice, due to a lack of beekeeping courses and practices. It is often the case that a beginner beekeeper underestimates certain zootechnical measures, e.g. monitoring and an appropriate way to control (treat) bee pathogens and parasites that can reproduce due to these errors and are unwittingly spreading.
