Download or read book Beekeeping From Science to Practice written by Russell H. Vreeland and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will help beekeepers understand the fundamentals of beekeeping science. Written in plain and accessible language by actual researchers, it should be part of every beekeeper’s library. The respective chapters not only present raw data; they also explain how to read and understand the most common figures. With topics ranging from honeybee nutrition to strains of Varroa resistant bees, from the effects of pesticide chemicals to understanding diseases, and including a discussion of venom allergies, the book provides essential “knowhow” that beekeepers will benefit from every time they inspect their hives. Further, each chapter ends with the author explaining how beekeepers can (or cannot) directly utilize the information to enhance their beekeeping operation. The text is structured to facilitate ease of use, with each author addressing the same four issues: 1) What are the specific purposes or goals of these experiments? Or more simply: what have these studies taught us? 2) How should a non-scientist read the data generated? 3) What are the key points in relation to practicing beekeepers’ goals? 4) How can the data or techniques discussed be applied by beekeepers in their own apiaries? This approach allows readers to look up specific information quickly, understand it and even put it to use without having to read entire chapters. Further, the chapters are highly readable and concise. As such, the book offers a valuable guide and faithful companion for all beekeepers, one they can use day in and day out.

Download or read book The Bee Keeper s Guide written by Albert John Cook and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bee-Keeper's Guide: Or Manual of the Apiary In 1876, in response to a desire frequently expressed by my apiarian friends, principally my students, I published an edition of 3000 copies of the little, unpretending Manual of the Apiary. This was little more than the course of lectures which I gave annually at the Michigan Agri cultural College. In less than two years this was exhausted, and the second edition, enlarged, revised, and much more fully illustrated, was issued. So great was the sale that in less than a year this was followed by the third and fourth editions, and, in less than two years, the fifth edition (seventh thousand) was issued. In each of the two following years, another edition was demanded. In each of these editions the book has been enlarged, changes made, and illustrations added, that the book might keep pace with our rapidly advancing art.
