Urban Beekeeping: Methods of Apiculture in the City
Lastly, the methods of apiculture also include the use of alternative hive designs, such as top-bar hives or Warre hives. These designs offer different approaches to beekeeping compared to the standard Langstroth hive. Such methods of apiculture can be more sustainable and bee-friendly, allowing bees to build natural comb structures and potentially reducing stress on the colony. Beekeepers exploring these alternative methods of apiculture often seek a more natural and holistic approach to beekeeping.
