Beekeeping or apiculture is the breeding of honeybees and
maintenance of beehives for their honey and other products that the hive
produces. Honey has several health benefits which include preventing cancer and
heart disease, reducing ulcer and other gastrointestinal disorders, blood sugar
regulation, strengthening the immune system etc., but despite these benefits, honey collection from beehives
remains a daunting exercise as it involves tedious processes like suiting up,
smoking the bees, cracking the hive open, lifting out the frames, sweeping off
the bees, transporting the frames to honey shed etc., and these comes with high
safety hazards such as stings from bees, burns from smoking etc.
