Economics of Beekeeping:

In the production of honey, the nectar, pollen and cane sugar bearing secretion of flowers are ingested by honeybees get mixed with the saliva and undergo certain chemical changes due to enzyme action. At this stage cane sugar (sucrose) is converted into invert sugar i.e., Dextrose and Levulose. At this time some ingredients of bees are also added to the mixture & reduced the water content. The whole mixture then collected in the honey sac until the honey reaches the hive. As the honeybee reaches the hive cell and is known as the honey. Now honey is concentrated by a strong current of air produced by the rapid beating of workers wings crawling over the cells.
