Yesterday, after Qindi original product returned from the bee farm, as usual, I began to look through the fans' messages, one of which aroused the interest of Qindi original:
Hello Teacher! I am a post-90s honey lover, tried a lot of honey, and now I feel that I still prefer native honey, so I want to learn some beekeeping knowledge, and then start my own "beekeeping career". After all, it is really tiring to go to work every day now, beekeeping can be said to be freelance, and the daily working hours are determined by yourself, and you feel happy when you think about it! So today I ask you, where should I start?
After reading this message, Qindi original helplessly smiled bitterly and shook his head, honey is indeed a healthy health care product, suitable for all ages, there are some young fans are not surprising at all! But if you want to engage in the beekeeping industry, Qindi Original is still advised to consider carefully, because beekeeping is not as easy as everyone thinks, and few young people are willing to engage in this industry at present, and beekeepers are becoming less and less. Qin Di original product summarized the reasons why more and more people are reluctant to engage in beekeeping, hoping to give this fan a reference:
1, beekeeping life is too hard
The above fan just likes to eat honey, but he did not come to our bee farm to see it in person, and he did not understand the hardships of beekeeping. For example, for people who breed bees, in order to let the bees collect nectar, they must continue to catch up with the flowering period, during which they will live a life of wind and food and sleeping; and for the bees in our breeding, although the bee farm is in the mountains, there is no need to move the hive back and forth, but due to the rugged mountain road, the cars cannot go up the mountain, and can only go down the mountain through human back honey, if they encounter rain and fall, they may have rolled down the mountain when they open their eyes, which is very dangerous! In addition, because the bee farm is in the mountains, many places do not have mobile phone signals, I don't know how many people can endure mobile phones without a signal for several days for young people today?
2, beekeeping technology is difficult to practice in a short period of time
In the eyes of most people, beekeepers are very relaxed, and they don't have to do anything at all! Even the honey is made by the bees themselves, and the beekeepers just collect the honey at will! In fact, these people are naïve in their thinking, and beekeeping is a real technical job. For example, how to manually divide bees, how to prevent pests and diseases, how to take honey, etc., these are all very testing work of beekeepers. And these technologies can only be obtained through continuous accumulation of experience, is a long-term process, many young people would rather use these hours to work, rather than spend so long to learn beekeeping technology, beekeepers will become less and less...
3. There are too many unstable factors affecting honey production
There is a saying among beekeepers: Eat by the sky! In addition to relying on technology, beekeeping also needs to rely on factors such as the natural environment. For example, weather factors, if there are more windy and rainy weather, bees can not go out of the nest to collect honey, it will affect the yield and quality of bees. There is also the honey source factor, the effective honey collection radius of the bee in the deep mountains is about two kilometers, beyond this range, the bees are difficult to collect, which is the impact of the honey source on honey production. Therefore, there are too many unstable factors that affect the quality and yield of honey.
4, the honey market is too chaotic
Friends who often eat honey should know that the current honey market is indeed somewhat chaotic, fake honey quickly seizes the honey market at a low price, constantly consuming everyone's trust in honey, and the real honey brought by beekeepers has gradually become unattended... As a result, many beekeepers have even started to abandon beekeeping and pursue other careers.
Therefore, it is not without reason that there are currently fewer and fewer beekeepers, and many young people cannot really eat the pain of beekeeping, as the older generation of beekeepers gradually leave, coupled with the continuous impact of fake honey on the market, the real beekeepers are becoming less and less. Therefore, people who want to engage in beekeeping should consider all aspects of the factors before making a decision, and also hope that beekeepers who are still on the front line can stick to their hearts, do not forget their original intentions, and bring high-quality honey to everyone.
