A Ton of Honey: Managing Your Hives for Maximum Production

By Grant Gillard

Every beekeeper dreams of harvesting abundant, if not "MONSTER" crops of honey. Some beekeepers just want enough honey to share with their in-laws while others long for a profitable hobby selling honey at the farmer's markets. And then your spouse or partner might be hoping for a little financial return on your investment.But the bees do not always cooperate with our plans. There are five main management practices that will insure a harvestable crop of honey. This book will also inform you how to work with other factors including the weather, available forage, and location, location, location. If you long for a honey crop, or at least hoping to get the most honey from your bees as you work with their potential, this book will show you how.
