Honey Bee Nutrition And Feeding Clarence H. Collison Emeritus Professor/Dept. Head Mississippi State University

Honey Bee Diet Pollen Nectar or Honey Water

Water Is A Vital Component In The Honey Bee Diet

Water Carrying Dissolved Food Materials To All Parts Of The Body Assists In The Removal Of Waste Products Involved In Digesting And Metabolizing Food

Nectar Carbohydrate Source “Energy Source”

Pollen Protein Amino Acids Minerals Vitamins Fats Sterols

Protein Content Of Pollens Varies From 10-36% Not All Pollens Are Nutritionally Alike Bees Generally Collect And Utilize A Mixture Of Pollens Many Individual Pollens Are Nutritionally Inadequate, Lacking In Certain Amino Acids Required By Bees

A Total Of 10 Amino Acids Must Be Present In The Diet Of Honey Bees For Maximum Development

Ten Essential Amino Acids Threonine Valine Methionine Leucine Iso-leucine Phenylalanine Lysine Histidine Arginine Tryptophan

Sucrose Glucose (Dextrose) Fructose (Levulose)

Nectar And Pollen Not Available Sweet-Tasting Juices From Overripe Fruit And Plant Exudates Collect Honeydew And Store It As Honey Rob Birdfeeders Collect Grain From Animal Mangers Coal Dust, Caulking From Windows

Extended Brood Rearing Is Not Possible Unless Pollen Or An Appropriate Source Of Protein And Vitamins Are Available

Honey Bees Can Live On A Pure Carbohydrate Diet For Extended Periods Of Time Bees Are Unable To Use Pollen As An Energy Source

1 Cell Of Honey 1000 Cells= 1 lb. Honey 1 lb 1 Cell Of Honey 1000 Cells= 1 lb. Honey 1 lb. Honey= 1000 Bees 150-175 lbs./Year

1 lb. Pollen = 4500 Bees 100 lbs./Year

Adult Queens Obtain Protein From Royal Jelly

Adult Workers (1-14 Days Old) Obtain Dietary Protein From Pollen

Adult Drones (1-8 Days Old) Obtain Dietary Protein From Food Supplied By Young Workers

If Young Workers Do Not Consume Needed Proteins Brood Food Glands Will Not Develop Completely Their Royal Jelly Will Not Support Normal Growth And Development Of Larvae Will Not Support Egg Production In The Queen

When Nurse Bees Begin Producing Royal Jelly For Young Larvae And The Queen, They Need A Diet High In Vitamins

Vitellogenin Is The Main Storage Protein In Honey Bee Hemolymph

Food Of Larval Bees Is Entirely Different From That Of Adult Bees

Larval Honey Bees Worker and drone larvae receive royal jelly for first two days, then worker and drone jelly + (bee bread) Queen larvae receive royal jelly throughout their larval period

Pollen Is Essential For The Growth Of Emerging Young Bees And For The Development Of The Brood Food Glands

Larval Skins In Front Of Colony

Anytime Less Than Three Full Frames Of Honey, The Colony Should Be Fed

Do Not Feed Brown Sugar Or Molasses

3 Pounds Of Glucose Or White Corn Syrup Sugar Candy 15 Pounds Of Sugar 3 Pounds Of Glucose Or White Corn Syrup 4 Cups Of Water ½ tsp. Cream Of Tartar

242° F-------180° F

Sugar Syrup 2:1 Sugar:Water

Sugar Syrup 1 ½ : 1 Sugar:Water

How Long Do You Need To Feed A Colony Sugar Syrup?

High Fructose Corn Syrup 55% Fructose 42% Fructose

Pollen Supplement Pollen Substitute

1 Pollen Cake 2 oz. Pollen 5. 5 oz. Water 10. 5 oz. Sugar 6 oz 1 Pollen Cake 2 oz. Pollen 5.5 oz. Water 10.5 oz. Sugar 6 oz. Soybean Flour

32 Pollen Cakes 4 lbs. Pollen 11 lbs. Water 21 lbs. Sugar 12 lbs 32 Pollen Cakes 4 lbs. Pollen 11 lbs. Water 21 lbs. Sugar 12 lbs. Soybean Flour
