Hi everybody,
thank you for feeding my curiosity about acacia tree origin and
non christalyzing types of honey.
It was very instructive.
For those who ask me about acacia crop in Romania I had to give some
suplementary information.(not officially,only from my personal
experience).
On previous years when all seasons come and go on time we could harvest
acacia 3 times (from mid april up to end of may)(we had a mobile apiary)
due to different time of blooming from Danube up to subcarpatic regions.
This was meaning 25-35 kg/hive/year on to a very good year.
Now it seems that the spring is disappearing.In 96 winter end on mid
april
and after some days summer come , acacia bloomed everywhere and was
burned
by excessive heat.Crop=1kg/hive.This year almost same problem,but after
winter started a rainy period . Crop=2kg/hive.
That was happened in my region.In others maybe it was better.
Costel
