Hey folks,
A noivce here. I saw a field alfalfa go in this spring and finally
caught the farmer working in the field. I just stopped in and got
permission to move my bees to his field. Now, I've got dreams of gallons of
honey.
Reality check! This a 20 acre field with another 10 or 12 acres two
miles away. I've picked a spot between both fields that has good access, is
a mile off the main road and will be in shade after 11 am. There is water
within a half mile, too.
What do I need to ask him? How long will the field keep blooming?
Besides when he sprays the field is their anything else I need to be
concerned about? How many hives does it take to maximise honey production?
Thanks,
Don
