Ma kahi o 300,000 mau tona o ka meli i kūʻai aku ai i ka mākeke kūwaho i kēlā me kēia makahiki, komo ʻo Mexico i loko me ia me ka awelika he ʻumi pākēneka, a ʻo ia ke kolu o kahi ʻāina hoʻoili, ma hope o Kina a me Argentina.
ʻO ka mahele hana nui ka Yucatan Peninsula, kahi e hōʻike ai ma kahi o ka hapakolu o ka hana aupuni a nona ka meli i lawe nui ʻia i nā ʻāina o ka European Union.
Lawe ʻia ka hapa nui o ka meli Mekiko i Kelemania, ke Aupuni Hui Pū ʻia a me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. I kēia lā ua hana ʻia ma mua o hoʻokahi miliona mau meli i ka honua. ʻO nā ʻāina ʻEulopa, ʻoiai he mea hana nui lākou, ʻo ia nō hoʻi nā mea lawe nui ma muli o ka ʻae nui ʻia o ka meli i kēlā wahi ʻāina.
ʻO Apis mellifera ka mea i ʻike nui ʻia ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa, kahi ʻano i hoʻohana nui ʻia a puni ka honua no kāna hana kiʻekiʻe a me ka hiki ke hoʻololi i nā wahi like ʻole.
Māhele meli i ka waihona meli
Aia ma ka hikina hema o Mekiko a hoʻopuni ʻia e nā wai o ke Kai Caribbean a me ke awāwa ʻo Mexico, ua uhi ʻia ka Penina ʻo Yucatan e nā ʻano mea kanu o nā lau nahele haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa, e like me nā nahele lau nahele, sub-deciduous a evergreen, me nā wahi nui me nā mea kanu hydrophilic. i nā kapakai. Hoʻolahalaha ʻia nā subtypes ʻokoʻa a me nā hui mea kanu e ka gradient ua e pili ana mai 400 mm o ka awelika o ka makahiki ua ma ka ʻākau a hiki i ka 2000 mm i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma ka hema o ka Peninsula. Ma kahi o 2,300 mau ʻano o nā mea kanu vascular i wehewehe ʻia i ka ʻāina.
ʻO ka momona o ka nahele, ka meli a me ke kālepa
Ua hoʻolauna ʻia ʻo Apis mellifera i ka Penikala ʻo Yucatan i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia i hala, ma kahi o 1911. Maliʻa paha ʻo ka mea mua nā subspecies A. mellifera mellifera, i ʻike ʻia ʻo ka nalo ʻeleʻele a i ʻole Kelemānia. Ma hope mai ua hiki mai ka pi Italia, A. mellifera ligustica, kahi mea kōkua i lawe koke ʻia no ka mea he huahua a pili pono hoʻi ia.
ʻO ka beekeeping ma ka peninsula kahi hana i hoʻokō ʻia e nā mea hana liʻiliʻi nona, i loko o kahi ʻōnaehana hana ponoʻī, ke kūʻai aku nei ka meli i kahi hoʻokomo kālā loaʻa kōkua.
Kūpono loa nā ʻenehana i hoʻohana ʻia, me ka hoʻopukapuka liʻiliʻi i nā lakohana a me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa loea a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka hana ʻohana. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā hives i loko o nā apiaries paʻa i nā wahi kūkaheo e hoʻohana pono ai i nā pua like ʻole, ʻokoʻa i nā wahi ʻē aʻe kahi e hoʻoliʻiliʻi ai nā beekeepers i kā lākou apiaries e like me nā piko pua i nā kaiaola like ʻole. Hiki ke hana i ka meli i kēia ala mahalo i nā pua momona momona o ka ʻāina.
Xunaʻan kab, ka bee Mayan
ʻO nā nalo meli nā pepelu e noho ana i nā kolone me kahi pae kiʻekiʻe o ka hui kaiaulu. Noho ka mōʻī wahine hoʻokahi i kēlā me kēia kolone a ʻo kāna hana nui ke kau ʻana i nā hua, a hiki i 1,500 i kēlā me kēia lā i ka wā ulu o ke kolone. ʻIke ʻia a ʻokoʻa nā pi o kekahi kolone mai kahi ʻē aʻe e nā pheromones a kā lākou mōʻī wahine e hua ai. He kāne kāne ʻo Drones. ʻO kāna hana e hoʻoulu i ka mōʻī wahine; ma hope o ka lele lele make lākou. Noho lākou ma kahi o hoʻokahi mahina a ʻo ka poʻe i hāʻule ʻole i ka hoa kipaku kipaku ʻia lākou mai ka home mai e ka poʻe hana. ʻO nā limahana he mau pi wahine, akā ʻaʻole hoʻomohala ʻia kā lākou mea hānau. Wahi a ko lākou mau makahiki a me ko lākou ulu ʻana, hana lākou i nā hana like ʻole. Hoʻomaʻemaʻe lākou i nā pūnaewele brood, mālama i ka hānai ʻana o ka larvae a me ka mōʻī wahine, hana a mālama i ka meli a me ka pollen, a hana pū i nā jelly aliʻi a lākou e hānai ai i ka mōʻī wahine a me ka wax me lākou e kūkulu ai i nā kāhuna, a ʻohiʻohi i ka nectar , pollen, wai a me propolis. Hoʻololi ke ola o kahi limahana i ka hana āna e hana ai, i ka wā ʻohi, ola lākou i ʻeono pule wale nō, ma waho o kēia hiki iā lākou ke noho i ʻeono mahina. ʻO kēia mau mea kolo kino huluhulu e ʻai i ka nectar a me ka pollen i loaʻa i nā pua. ʻO nā ʻohana he ʻumikūmākahi e māhele ai lākou, ʻewalu mau mea ma Mekiko, ʻo ka hapanui kahi mehameha a noho i nā wahi maloʻo o ka ʻāina. ʻO kekahi mau lālā wale nō o ka ʻohana Apidae kaiaulu maoli, e noho nei i nā kolone hoʻonohonoho a me ke kūkulu ʻana i nā waihona kahi e mālama ai i kā lākou meaʻai.
ʻOhi a me nā pilikia
Pili loa ka pōʻai hānai beekeeping i ka pōʻai ua. Kū ka wā hōʻiliʻili nui i ka wā maloʻo, mai Pepeluali a Mei a Iune paha, e like me ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka ua. I kēia manawa, ulu kahi ʻāpana nui o ka nectariferous species a hua ka meli i ka meli i ka nui e mālama ai i ko lākou heluna kanaka a hōʻiliʻili i nā koena no ka manawa o ka lahilahi; ʻo kēia meli i mālama ʻia e hōʻiliʻili ka beekeeper me ka makaʻu ʻole o ka hōʻino ʻana i ka lāhui pi. I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kau ua, ʻoiai ʻo ka pua aia i kona piko, ʻaʻole ʻae ka pae kiʻekiʻe o ka haʻahaʻa i nā pi e hana pono, ʻo ka meli i ʻohi ʻia i kēia wā pōkole he kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe o ka haʻahaʻa, kūʻai aku kekahi poʻe beekeepers iā ia i nā kumukūʻai haʻahaʻa a mālama nā poʻe ʻē aʻe iā ia e hānai i nā nalo meli i nā manawa pilikia.
ʻO ka wā lōʻihi o ka ua, mai ʻAukake a Nowemapa, hōʻike i ka manawa o ka pilikia no nā pi. I kēia manawa e ulu pono kekahi mau ʻano melliferous, eia nō naʻe, he mea nui kēia no ka mālama ʻana i nā kolone; pono nā mea hānai hānai hānai e hāʻawi i nā meaʻai keu no kā lākou pi. I ka manawa o ka hoʻololi ʻana mai ka ua a i ka wā maloʻo e hoʻomaka kahi ulu nui o nā ʻano laha, e hāʻawi ana i nā nalo me ka nectar e hoʻoikaika i ko lākou lehulehu a hoʻomākaukau no ka manawa o ka nui, ʻo ia ka manawa o ka hoʻōla.
ʻO nā ʻāpana ʻē aʻe e like me nā minelala, nā wikamina a me nā mea ʻē aʻe ke kuleana nui no nā ʻano ʻokoʻa o ke kala, ʻono a me ka ʻaʻala o kēia huahana Yucatecan i ʻike ʻia a puni ka honua.
