The Busy Life of the Honeybee


            During the last 30 years a rapid decline of honeybees occurred in China. As a consequence of this event, it happened that in China and Japan no bee was still alive and therefore, the human being was the one who cares in the procedure of pollinating the trees, carrying pots of pollen and paintbrushes every flower individually (Markus Imhoof, "More than Honey", 2012). However, it is common knowledge that the number of human beings present in the world is not enough in order to pollinate every tree in the planet. Not only is this decreasing due to the pesticides that reduce hive bees communication ability, but it is also caused by the destruction of the forests and grasslands in order to create new crop areas.
             Honeybees are important because they are responsible for 1/3 of our alimentary sources. Without bees our daily dishes would be depressingly poor, and we would be forced to survive with abiotic factors. Our research will focus on the reintroduction of the honeybees in the apple crops in Maoxian Country, in the northwestern Sichuan Province of China. In this territory Uma Partap and Tang Ya (2012) have already done conducted some researches in regard to the failure of hand pollination, which that have caused a decrease of apple tree crops. In this country the agriculture still remains the most important resource for the economy, but in the last years, because of honeybee decrease, the plum and walnut trees have been replacing the apple trees. We will work on an isolated place, away from all the industrial buildings, in the proximity of other already existing apple tree crops that are situated close to a riverbank for water supply. We will plants 50 adults apple trees and 27 pollinator trees of different variety in order to succeed with the cross-pollination on a territory area of 120 meter square. As already mentioned, since pollinators are the main points, we will build some bee hives, to ensure their life.
