Answers (1)

It appears that low yield from the farm was because of the absence of sufficient pollinators. We know that pollination is important for seed production in many crops. Insects are important agents of pollination and bees pollinate many plant species. Keeping a beehive near the farm will help in proper pollination of the crop during the flowering stage. This will eventually help in improving the farm yield. Moreover, it will also augment the farmer’s income by selling honey and beeswax.
