Conclusion
During this reporting period, there were no major challenges. Nearly all hives have been successfully repopulated, showing recovery and progress. Our main focus is now on to take care of the hives, make sure the bees population stay strong and healthy, increase the number of bees for commercial (selling) purposes, and protect the hives from diseases and fungal infections.
Regular monitoring and protective methods are in place to protect the hives from insect attacks. In the coming months, we will keep working to prioritize hive health, grow more colonies, and hive expansion once everything is stable.
