It will vary according to a number of factors: the number of bees; the state of health of the bees; the availability of nectar-producing flowers; how good the weather is during the summer, and so on.
Given all these factors and a reasonable year, it is possible for one hive to produce around 50 pounds of honey.
Honey combs may be harvested once the cells have been capped with wax. Before this, the bees consider there is too much water in the honey, so it is not ready.
Many beekeepers will generally do this once a year, at the end of summer so the combs can all be extracted at the same time. If the beekeeper thinks the bees have been foraging from a plant such as oil seed rape (canola), where the honey crystalizes very quickly, he will take what honey is available soon after the flowers are finished, otherwise there is a risk of it crystalizing in the comb, making it very difficult to extract.
That depends upon a lot of factors, but I can say: 1) its typically a boom or bust business, and 2) it has been getting tougher to make money at it every year for the last few decades, reaching a nadir in early 2007 when colony collapse disorder devastated many businesses. Certainly no-one I've heard of is getting rich keeping bees.
Thirty (30) days to five years is the length of time that the honeybee lives. Female worker and male drone bees sustain respective life cycles of 30 days to four months and of 40 to 50 days. Queen honeybees tend to experience life cycles and natural histories of two to five years.
One bee makes a very miniscule amount of honey each day. In a bees lifetime, they will produce approximately 1/12 teaspoon.
A bee doesn't live for a year, only for six or seven weeks. However, in its lifetime, one bee will produce about 1/12 of a teaspoon of honey.
An adult queen bee can live for years while adult drones and adult workers live for only weeks. The period from hatching to adult is about the same for all--around a month.
This can vary greatly depending on the 'forage' available to the bees throughout the year. Therefore the amount of honey produced in a single hive can range from nothing at all to 300 pounds.

About one teaspoonful.
A honey bee collects about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime
In its lifetime a honeybee will collect enough nectar to make one twelfth of a teaspoon of honey, so around 12 honeybees.The average honey bee produces about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime.
It takes quit a long time for bees to make honey. It depends on how much pollon the bee collects.
No, you cannot make honey from bees on Animal Crossing.
About one teaspoonful.
In its lifetime, the average honey bee worker produces about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey.
According to the Honey Association, the average honey bee willactually make only one twelfth of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime.
In its lifetime, the average honey bee worker produces about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey.
A honey bee collects about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime
A honey bee only lives for 6 weeks so it probably can only produce a teaspoonful of honey in its life.
A bee and a flower = Honey!
In its lifetime a honeybee will collect enough nectar to make one twelfth of a teaspoon of honey, so around 12 honeybees.The average honey bee produces about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime.
Only about one twelfth of a teaspoon so you can see it's not a lot, I bet you weren't expecting that. But if you think of the whole hive, they can make about 30 jars in a lifespan!
bee+flower=honey :)
bee+flower=honey :)
In its lifetime, a honey bee only collects enough nectar to make about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey. In order to collect one kilo of honey the bees would have had to have flown the equivalent of nearly 200,000 kilometres while foraging.
