| Abstract | ||
| In order to survey effects of different starch levels on brood rearing and hive population 40 colonies were assimilated for queen age, population, and food storage in the hive. From these colonies24 hives randomly were distributed in treatments. This experiment was done through completely randomized design with4 treatments, and 6 repetitions. Treatments included: 1- control (only sugar syrup 50%).2-10% starch and syrup.3-20% starch and syrup, 4-30% starch and syrup. Brood rearing level and hive population were recorded each 15 days. Data were analyzed using SAS software. Results showed there are significant differences between treatments from the view point of brood rearing rate and hive population (P<0.05).Starch content of honey was measured using Iodine method. There was not considerable starch in honey. Therefore it seems using appropriate level of starch in the honey bee nutrition can increase hive performance | ||
