УДК 638.132
Abstract: 

The article presents results of the research on honey productivity and quality. It is established that the species composition of nectariferous plants is heterogeneous and the apiaries honey plants grown on their territory have different honey productivity from 15-25 to 800-1000 kg per hectare. On the territory of the apiary 1 grow the honey plants with higher honey production, such as White acacia, galega orientalis, Echium and Roundheaded globe thistle (Echinops sphaerocephalus). They are allowed to obtain for the season an average output of gross and marketable honey from each bee colony in the apiary 1 greater than in the apiary 2 at 0.8 and 2.5 kg or 3.9 and 26.6% respectively.
