About how much honey will a single worker bee produce in her lifetime? 1/12 of a teaspoon, half of a teaspoon, 1 ounce or two and a half pounds. It's not a lot. Experts estimate that a honeybee produces 1/12 of a teaspoon in her entire life.
2020 has been a strange year. I mean for honeybees. What were you thinking? It's not unusual for beekeepers to lose some of their colonies. Pests and diseases can cause that. Sometimes the insects are malnourished. Some colony losses have been blamed on pesticides. The recent good news for honeybees is that colony losses from the winter of 2019 to 2020 were the second lowest on record according to the Bee Informed Partnership. The bad news is that colony losses from this summer were the highest that the partnership has recorded since it started tracking this in 2006. These statistics are from the United States which currently has less than half the bee colonies it did in 1950. But the number of colonies worldwide has increased by tens of millions since then so it's not as much a concern globally. And there are multiple companies working to help bee populations.
