Book "Keeping Bees in Multiple-Body Hives", A.V. Folts
Modern commercial beekeeping aims to enable one beekeeper to manage a large number of bee colonies without another person's help. The number of colonies that one person can look after ranges from 200 to 400. For one person to manage the work involved in maintaining such a large number of bee colonies throughout the season, proper beekeeping practices must be followed.
In this book, the author offers advice on keeping bees in multiple-body hives. It describes beekeeping methods designed to obtain the greatest amount of honey and wax from a bee colony while reducing the labour time required to maintain the hives.
