Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2011, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

For the implementation of an accurate apiarian management in the research area (In Corvin village is situated in Dobrogea historical area, in the South- East of Romania) it had to be determined the elements of apiarian management depending on the organization and administration of the apiarian farms within the respective area, which directly imply the available honey-bearing resources. Methodologically, the actual situation analysis related to the beekeeping allowed us to establish the main methods and techniques of the implied research. In accordance with the bee keeping potential evaluation, the honey quantity that can be produced during one year of vegetation in Ion Corvin village is that of 102 tons. The fluctuation on short term of this indicator is that of 4.7%, and that of medium term is that of 0.8% at the level of total area. Taking into consideration the natural factors’ influence, the fluctuation of the beekeeping potential is that of 5%. The beekeeping activity from Ion Corvin village is characterized by a medium profitableness of 24%, but the majority of the exploitations (80%) is under the value of this indicator, some of them registering losses of about 110 monetary units spent. This phenomenon is caused by the existence of a apiary which do not have as a main purpose to obtain profit out of this activity, but ensures the family consumption with bee products or there are maintained out of beekeeping hobby. These apiaries, although they are not profitable, do a service to the beekeeping by popularization of the products quality and bees’ importance, therefore, do not represent wastes but, most of the times, represent the embryos of the future medium and large beekeeping gardens. The exploitations’ management describes more organizational options like: beekeeper-leader, beekeeping garden and beekeeper, mobile teamwork and mixed option comprising mobile teamwork and beekeeper.
