Answers (1)

Apiculture indeed offers multiple advantages to farmers. The following are the advantages of having an apiary near a place of commercial flower cultivation:

(a) Bees will get plenty of flowers as a source of nectar. This will help them in preparing a larger quantity of honey. Beeswax production will also increase significantly.

(b) Bees are important pollinations. They will help in improving flower production. This will help the horticulturist to increase his income by selling flowers.

(c) This will also help in improving the availability of flowers for the perfume industry.

(d) The essential oils from many flowers are used in many medicinal products. So, better flower cultivation will support this activity as well.
