(Assuming the question is not factitious)
You don't have to *if* you know what you are doing and feed the right
syrup in the right amounts the right place, and at the right times.
If you don't know bees and your district well, don't open feed. Open
feeding is an expert technique with numerous subtle parameters.
That said, thousands of commercial beekeepers use the technique
routinely and successfully using hired labour, so it cannot be rocket
surgery.
