CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to calculate the annual income of beekeeping (How to calculate the annual income of beekeeping)

1. How much can two beehives earn in a year?

Two beehives can earn about 2,000 to 3,000 yuan a year. Under normal circumstances, one beehive can harvest 20 kilograms of honey a year, and two beehives can harvest about 40 kilograms of honey. The selling price of each kilogram of honey is about 40 or 50 yuan, so the income can be close to 2,000 yuan. But beekeeping is not just about selling honey, beeswax and royal jelly can also be sold.

2. What is the real income from beekeeping in Italy in 2019?

The analysis is as follows: 1. Chinese bees: The cost of a box of Chinese bees in the first year is about 650 yuan (about 500 yuan for bee species, about 100 yuan for bee tools, and about 50 yuan for bee medicine and feed), and the cost in the second year is about 50 yuan (from the second year onwards only bee medicine and feed are needed). Chinese bees can produce about 5 to 15 kilograms of honey a year, and the selling price of each kilogram of honey is about 100 to 200 yuan. The income from selling honey for a box of Chinese bees in a year is about 1,500 yuan. Raising 10 boxes of Chinese bees can earn about 8,500 yuan in the first year, but from the second year onwards, it can earn about 14,500 yuan each year.

2. Italian bees: The cost of a box of Italian bees in the first year is about 300 yuan (about 100 yuan for bee species, about 100 yuan for bee tools, and about 100 yuan for bee medicine and feed). The cost in the second year is about 100 yuan (from the second year onwards, only bee medicine and feed are needed). Italian bees can produce about 100 to 150 kilograms of honey a year, and the selling price of each kilogram of honey is about 10 to 20 yuan. The profit of a box of Italian bees from selling honey in a year is about 1,875 yuan. Raising 10 boxes of Italian bees can make about 15,750 yuan in the first year, but from the second year onwards, you can make about 17,750 yuan each year.

In summary, how much money you can make from raising 10 boxes of bees depends on the type of bees. For example, raising 10 boxes of Chinese bees can earn about 8,500 yuan in the first year, while raising 10 boxes of Italian bees can earn 15,750 yuan in the first year. In theory, the economic benefits of beekeeping are indeed very attractive, but in fact, not many people make money from beekeeping. The reason is that beekeeping may fail if one of the climate, nectar source, and technology is missing.

3. How much is the annual income from raising 30 beehives?

It costs about 10,000 to 30,000 yuan a year to raise 30 beehives! This depends on the weather and the source of honey and pollen.

4. How much can you earn per year from beekeeping?

The annual income from beekeeping varies depending on the scale of breeding. For example, there is definitely a difference between the benefits of raising 100 beehives and 200 beehives. However, it does not mean that the more bee colonies you raise, the higher the benefits of beekeeping. The reason is that there is a threshold for the nectar carrying capacity and the number of bee colonies. For example, when Chinese honey bees are raised at a fixed point, there cannot be more than 50 bee colonies within a radius of 3 to 5 kilometers. Otherwise, the more bee colonies you raise, the lower the total honey production.

5. How much can you earn in a year by raising 50 beehives?

Raising 50 beehives can earn about 80,000 yuan a year.

1. Chinese bees: The cost of a box of Chinese bees in the first year is about 650 yuan (about 500 yuan for bee species, about 100 yuan for bee tools, and about 50 yuan for bee medicine and feed). The cost in the second year is about 50 yuan (from the second year onwards, only bee medicine and feed are needed). Chinese bees can produce about 5 to 15 kilograms of honey a year, and the selling price of each kilogram of honey is about 100 to 200 yuan. The profit of a box of Chinese bees from selling honey in a year is about 1,500 yuan. Raising 50 boxes of Chinese bees can earn about 42,500 yuan in the first year, but from the second year onwards, it can earn about 72,500 yuan per year.

2. Italian bees: The cost of a box of Italian bees in the first year is about 300 yuan (about 100 yuan for bee species, about 100 yuan for bee tools, and about 100 yuan for bee medicine and feed). The cost in the second year is about 100 yuan (from the second year onwards, only bee medicine and feed are needed). Italian bees can produce about 100 to 150 kilograms of honey a year, and the selling price of each kilogram of honey is about 10 to 20 yuan. The profit of a box of Italian bees from selling honey in a year is about 1,875 yuan.

Theoretically, the economic benefits of beekeeping are indeed very attractive, but in fact not many people make money through beekeeping. The reason is that beekeeping may fail if one of the climate, nectar source, and technology is missing.
