Scientists have developed a breakthrough food supplement that could help save honeybees from devastating declines. By engineering yeast to produce six essential sterols found in pollen, researchers provided bees with a nutritionally complete diet that boosted reproduction up to 15-fold. Unlike commercial substitutes that lack key nutrients, this supplement mimics natural pollen’s sterol profile, giving bees the equivalent of a balanced diet.
If their population gets to big dont they just split essentially, the old queen and a bunch of bees “swarm” which is just them moving elsewhere, which the old hive usually just raises a new queen and keeps going.
Or are you saying they are worried to many bees will leave or they may not get a new queen in time?
What I was talking about is taking honey from bees. You take too much some of them will die, you don’t take any the population will grow. Beekeepers know how much honey to take so they won’t breed too much and split (because you bees expanding and splitting doesn’t benefit you).
