The majority of beekeepers in Tasmania use Langstroth hives and are involved in migratory beekeeping following peak honey flows. We look at urban beekeeping, the development of an urban code of practice, even rooftop hives.
Alternative Beekeeping and Innovation explores a number of different approaches based on close to nature concepts including Warré and top-bar hives. The Flow(R) Hive, the most significant innovation in beehive design and honey collection in over 100 years is applauded.
A guide to disease and pests helps understand issues and manage healthy colonies while providing solutions to their impacts. Biosecurity is essential to the Australian and Tasmanian honey bee industry and protecting bees is vital for the benefit of pollination dependent food crops.
Understanding your local and regional flora and flowering times helps beekeepers move hives to honey flows and identify beneficial plants for planting.
Whether you have one hive or hundreds Beekeeping At The End Of The Earth is a must read for every cool climate beekeeper.
