Queen bee breeding process. Patent: MD no. 1925 Z 2026.06.30

Abstract

Queen bee rearing process, which includes forming the nurse bee colony by removing the queen and the uncapped brood combs, introducing the frame with transferred larvae into the nest and feeding the nurse bees with a mixture of 50% sugar syrup, an aqueous solution of D-glucuronic acid and choline chloride, in an amount of 0.5 L of the mixture per bee colony, daily for 5 days, from the introduction of the frame with transferred larvae until the hives are hatched. The result of the invention consists in feeding nurse bees in the technological process of queen rearing which ensures an increase in the acceptance of larvae during growth by 22.3-36.2%, the diameter of the combs – by 1.8-12.7%, the length – by 1.2-5.0% and the mass of unmated queens 2.2-5.0% – by 0.3-9.1%.
