Focus on honey knowledge network
Honey is a very valuable nutrient in our lives, and the honey knowledge network on top of the arrows is watching us free of charge, getting the honey knowledge every day
Listening to the bee's words in the last article, together with everyone, calculates the annual cost and annual returns of raising a box of bees; and finally it is felt that the bees are confined to production, and that, although they are not expensive, they are difficult to earn, but only to play with; and since bees are not a good means of making money, is it possible to keep the bees? How much does a box of bees earn every year? How much does it cost to have a box of bees a year
Now listen to the bee's words and come with us。
I. How much does it cost a year to keep a box of bees
Direct purchase of bees: complete purchase of a very healthy group of bees with a repeater of 12 spleen; calculation of the costs of bees and nest spleen at a minimum of $1,200. Once the two honey sources have been collected, they are not managed, and the bees simply do not, saving the cost of maintaining the bees behind them。
The cost of a box of bees is $1,200 a year。
Because the bees need to be turned around, the cost of shipping is on average $40 per bee; and the amount of small, plethora of things, such as rocking a bucket of honey, storing a bucket of honey, is on average $10 per year。
The lowest cost per year for the direct purchase of a box of bees is 1,200 + 40 + 10 = 1250。
2. Self-breeding: it's not a cost to be considered a four-spleen bee. (it's a very high cost to leave a bee, if not to buy honey, not bee-picking). Four spleen bees breed to 12 spleen bees at a feeding cost of $300; 12 frame nest spleen at a rate of $50; prophylactic bee cost at a rate of $50; flower hunting transportation at a rate of $100; work such as dictum treatment at a rate of $20; beekeeping kits at a rate of $20 a year; and beehive trunks and trunks at a rate of $125 a year for five years
The cost of such a box of bees is 300+50+50+100+20+20+25 = $565 per year。
How much can a box of bees earn a year
The first model: a large-scale model, supplied to buyers, was almost all wholesale。
This pattern of high honey production, with a box of 12 spleen-sized bees, calculated at 100 pounds a year; some people take honey once a day at 200 pounds a year; honey prices are calculated at an average of $6 per pound. And finally, a box of bees can sell 200 pounds。
Direct bees earns $1200-1250 = $50 per year. This represents a loss of $50, but both of them can lower the price of bees even a little bit, while the losses can be reversed by some retailing and increasing the price of some honey varieties。
You can earn your own bee in one year: $1,200-565 = $635。
This large-scale model, because of the short cycle of honey extraction, does not guarantee that each harvest of honey will meet the requirements of the acquisition, which would involve the cost of an additional enrichment machine, with a mini-carrying enrichment machine and a large one, which would not be counted here. I don't want any honey。
2 a second model: a small- and medium-scale model with high requirements for honey and a retail approach to honey。
The pattern is long, with low production of honey, with a box of 12 spleen-sized bees at a maximum of 50 pounds a year and a price of 50 pounds a year. You can sell $2,500 a year。
Direct bees can be bought in a year: 2,500 bucks-1250 = 1250 dollars; however, small- and medium-sized farming models are all their own bees, usually not bees, only when they are not。
For one year, you earn 2500 and 565 = 1935. Did you get a heart attack? A box of bees can make $1935 a year. It's a great income。
How about 50 boxes of bees this year? 50 boxes of bees* $1935 = $96,750. It's not nice to make a hundred thousand bucks a year
But the question is, if it's retail, are you sure you can sell 2500 pounds of honey at an average of 50 pounds? The 1,000 pounds of honey taken last year in the bee language are now 400 pounds, and half of the 600 pounds are still fed to bees in spring。
So how much do you think a box of bees costs a year? And how much do you earn every year? Please leave a message。
