Hierarchy in beekeeping.
When asked what interests people most from the moment of their birth until old age, one can unmistakably say that it is the desire to understand the hierarchical ladder, its structure in the hope of seeing oneself as high as possible in this structure.
In essence, hierarchy is most often the fruit of pride, the unwillingness to accept the fact that you do not need to prove your superiority, but one day the Serpent decided to convince Adam and Eve that God's superiority over them should not be and they tasted the forbidden fruit by violating the hierarchy, turning into pride.
Since then, someone wants to dominate someone, and the question of who is the most important torments people to this day.
So, speaking about beekeeping, it is worth touching on the interesting question of hierarchy in beekeeping in general and within the bee family.
For example, who is more important, the beekeeper who supposedly takes care of the bees, or the bees that bring him honey and other bee products?
Or, what is more important, the flowering plants that give the bees their nectar, or the bees that pollinate these plants.
In essence, the answer to this question will not change anything, but for fun, we can speculate about it.
If we talk about the superiority of plants over bees, then the question will always arise, what will happen to the plant world if bees disappear?
Will nano robot bees replace them?
And will a robot be able to extract propolis, wax?
They will not replace bees, and bees will always depend to some extent on flowers, although there is honeydew honey, which bees can obtain from non-flowering coniferous trees, or from the organic secretions of some insects that remain on tree leaves in the form of sweetish drops.
Therefore, in the hierarchy between bees and plants, an equal sign can be put.
The structure of a bee family is similar to a strict hierarchy where there is a queen bee, her retinue, there are nurse bees or nannies who look after the bee larvae in the honeycombs, there are guards, worker bees and scouts, one cannot help but mention drones, which have become a household name due to laziness, but without them, there will be no bee family.
The rank of the queen bee is the most precarious in the bee family and other bees control every step of the queen bee and if something in the hive goes wrong, only the queen bee will be to blame, and a new queen will be created to replace her.
In general, in the bee family everything is strict and mistakes are not forgiven, and such a feeling as compassion is unfamiliar to bees.
In this, people are a little kinder than bees lol, because they often put up with the presence of despots in power lol.
And an important question about the importance of the beekeeper in this matter.
In fact, the beekeeper is only a catalyst that enhances or controls the process of a chemical reaction, if you compare beekeeping with something similar.
The beekeeper can monitor the health and satiety of the bees, control the ability to bring more honey by expanding the hive by adding honey frames, but nothing more, he is like the service staff in a three-star hotel, he wants more tourists to spend their money there, and the bees will cope with their work without a beekeeper.
But, this is a general view on the issue of beekeeping in my opinion, the work of a beekeeper is interesting and there is something to talk about, but the bees will be the main ones in this matter lol.
