Description

A kind of multi-queen breeding box and breeding method

technical field

The invention relates to the field of bee breeding, in particular to a multi-queen breeding box and a breeding method.

Background technique

In recent years, the rapid development of facility agriculture has led to a dramatic increase in the demand for crop pollination. However, the greenhouse environment is relatively closed, and crops mostly bloom in winter. The existing pollination methods (manually assisted pollination, vibrator pollination, and hormone pollination) cannot efficiently solve all crop pollination problems. Pollination difficulties have become the key to limiting the development of facility agriculture.

Studies have shown that bumblebees are the most effective and most widely used pollinators for greenhouse crop pollination in the world. Because of its cold resistance, sonic shock pollination, high flower visiting efficiency, strong adaptability and other characteristics, it can especially pollinate Solanaceae crops that other bees do not collect. It is an ideal pollinator for greenhouse crops. Now more than 1 million groups of pollinators are consumed every year in the world, which has become one of the important agronomic measures of organic agriculture.

The pollination effect of bumblebees mainly depends on the number of worker bees in attendance, which in turn mainly depends on the total number of worker bees in the hive. The length of pollination time mainly depends on the time of laying eggs of worker bees in the colony. A robust queen bee can effectively inhibit worker bees from laying eggs, thereby preventing the premature oviposition of worker bees in the bee colony, resulting in premature senescence of pollinator colonies. It can be seen that the total number of worker bees in the nest and the queen bee’s inhibition of worker bees from laying eggs are the decisive factors in determining the number of worker bees and the pollination effect of pollination colonies. . Therefore, strengthening the research on bumblebee breeding technology, increasing the total number of worker bees in the hive, and delaying the premature aging of the bee colony have practical application significance for improving the pollination effect and prolonging the pollination time.

Example 1:

As shown in Figures 1-11, this embodiment provides a multi-queen breeding box, which includes a box body 1, a box cover 2 and more than two partitions, and the horizontal and vertical cross-connection of each partition divides the box 1 into a plurality of queen bees Breeding area 3, the box body 1 is provided with a liquid feeder 4 and a nest door 5, and the liquid feeder 4 can simultaneously feed the queen bees in each queen bee breeding area 3; the bottom end of the clapboard is provided with a number of through holes 8. The through hole 8 can allow the worker bees to pass through, but not the queen bee. The through hole 8 is used for the communication between worker bees between different breeding areas. Wherein, the diameter of the through hole 8 is preferably 5-7 mm, so that worker bees in different breeding areas in the same nest box can communicate with each other. The result of intercommunication is that worker bees in different breeding areas of the same nest box have the same odor through odor mixing. There will no longer be hostility between worker bees due to different group tastes, and they will achieve friendly coexistence and become a super pollinator group. During pollination, worker bees enter and exit the same entrance and exit. Due to the large number of worker bees, the bee colony in one nest box will exceed the sum of the effects of separate pollination by the worker bees in two nest boxes, thereby reducing costs and increasing pollination benefits.

In this specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3 , the box body 1 is provided with a flat plate partition 6 and a "V"-shaped partition 7, and the tip of the "V"-shaped partition 7 is connected to the flat partition The front ends are cross-connected, and the intersection is cross-shaped. Under normal circumstances, a beehive only raises one queen bee, and a bumblebee queen can only produce 80 to 200 worker bee eggs in a lifetime (due to different species), therefore, the number of worker bees in a bee colony is determined by the worker bee eggs produced by the queen bee. quantity. Based on this, in this embodiment, the box body 1 is divided into four queen bee breeding areas 3 by the above-mentioned flat plate partitions 6 and "V"-shaped partitions 7, which not only realizes the feeding of four queen bees, but also makes the eggs of worker bees in the hive. At least double the number, realize the breeding of super-powerful commercial bumblebee pollinators, and save space and labor in the early stage, and improve efficiency.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 , the liquid feeder 4 includes a storage tank 9 and a feeding tank 10 communicated with the storage tank 9. The storage tank 9 stores the existing liquid feed for bumblebees, The liquid feeder 4 is an existing structure, and the specific feeding principle will not be repeated here. Among them, the feeding trough 10 is located at the intersection of the "V"-shaped partition 7 and the flat partition 6, and the tip of the "V"-shaped partition 7 is close to the front end of the box body 1, which is convenient for the storage tank 9 to be installed in the box. As shown in FIG. 3 , on the front end of the body 1, the four corners of the feeding trough 10 are respectively located in the four queen bee breeding areas 3, which can satisfy the simultaneous feeding of the queen bees in the four queen bee breeding areas 3.

In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 1-2, the upper surface of the box cover 2 is respectively provided with a solid feeding port corresponding to the four queen bee breeding areas 3, and a detachable baffle 11 is installed on each solid feeding port. The detachable baffle 11 is connected with the solid feeding port, which is convenient for disassembly. Open the detachable baffle 11 in the corresponding area, and then the corresponding queen bee breeding area 3 can be fed with solid feed.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 7 , the nest door 5 is arranged on the rear end surface of the box body 1 , and the nest door 5 includes a circular hole arranged on the rear end surface and a revolving door 12 installed outside the circular hole. The outer side wall is provided with a circular track, and the revolving door 12 is installed in the circular track and can be rotated along the circular track in the circular track. The revolving door 12 is provided with an alignment hole 13 and a handle 14, which can be held by hand. The handle 14 can rotate the revolving door 12 to align or stagger the alignment hole 13 with the circular hole. When the alignment hole 13 is aligned with the circular hole, the nest door 5 is in an open state.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 , the round hole includes a first round hole 15 and a second round hole 16 , the revolving door 12 covers the outside of the two round holes, and the inside of the second round hole 16 is provided with a The folding plate 20, the top end of the folding plate 20 is rotatably installed above the second round hole 16 through the rotating shaft, and the folding plate 20 can completely cover the second round hole 16 under the action of its own weight. When the revolving door 12 is rotated until the alignment hole 13 is completely aligned with the first round hole 15, the second round hole 16 is completely blocked by the revolving door 12. At this time, the first round hole 15 can be used as a two-way door, that is, a worker bee colony It can either fly out through the first round hole 15 or fly in through the first round hole 15 ; and when the revolving door 12 is rotated until the alignment hole 13 and the second round hole 16 are completely aligned, the first round hole 15 It is completely blocked by the revolving door 12. At this time, the second round hole 16 can be used as a one-way door due to the setting of the folding plate 20. The worker bees fly in through the second round hole 16 , but under the shielding action of the folding plate 20 , the worker bee colony cannot fly out of the box 1 through the second round hole 16 .

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 8 to 11 , a through groove is formed at the bottom of the flat plate partition 6 , and an inverted “L”-shaped through plate 17 is installed on both sides of the through groove. The top end is connected with the flat plate partition, and the bottom end is provided with a plurality of through holes 8 . The two inverted "L"-shaped through-boards 17 are arranged opposite to each other, so that a channel with a certain width is formed between the vertical plates of the two inverted "L"-shaped through-boards 17. an area. Since the queen bumblebee has the biological characteristics of living alone and the individual is relatively large, the setting of the through holes 8 will inevitably cause the legs to extend into another breeding area by mistake, which is also likely to cause the queen bee to kill the legs in the other breeding area. Therefore, it is necessary to set the inverted "L"-shaped through-boards 17 on both sides to reserve a passage space that can extend the legs of the queen bee in one area without being discovered by the queen bee in the adjacent breeding area, which not only realizes the Multiple queen bees lay eggs in the same nest, which enables peaceful coexistence between queen bees, fundamentally preventing mutual killing, laying eggs at the same time, and breeding separately to achieve the purpose of increasing the number of worker bees.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2 , the bottom plate of the box body 1 is provided with a number of excretion holes 18 (which will not make any bees fly out of the holes) for excreting the fecal waste in the box body, and the box cover 2 is provided with The plurality of ventilation holes 19 not only prevent any bees from flying out of the ventilation holes 19, but also can achieve the effect of ventilation in the box 1.

In this embodiment, the box body 1 is provided with a number of jacks, and correspondingly, the box cover 2 , the flat plate partition 6 and the "V"-shaped partition 7 are provided with insert blocks matching the jacks. The components are inserted through the slot and the plug-in block structure, which is easy to disassemble and assemble.

At the same time, the present embodiment provides a multi-queen breeding method based on the above-mentioned multi-queen breeding box, which mainly includes the following steps:

Step 1: In this embodiment, the box body 1 is divided into 4 queen bee breeding areas 3 by the flat plate clapboard 6 and the "V"-shaped clapboard 7, and a bumblebee queen bee is raised in each queen bee breeding area 3 respectively. , Activating the queen bee and feeding it normally, since different queen bee breeding areas are separated by partitions, it can prevent mutual killing between queen bees;

Step 2: After the worker bees leave the house, they can freely enter and exit between the queen bee breeding areas 3 through the through hole 8. Since the worker bees who have just left the house do not have a special colony smell, they can be accepted by any queen bee. Realize the mixing of group scents in the same box 1; after mixing the group scents, the entire nest box worker bees will live in peace;

Step 3: When a large number of worker bees leave the house and reach the pollination standard (this standard is obvious to those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here), put the pollination worker bee colony into the greenhouse, open the nest door 5, and pollinate the worker bee colony. In and out together to achieve pollination;

Step 4: After the pollination worker bee colony collects pollen and returns to the nest, the pollen is brought into different queen bee breeding areas 3 until each queen bee lays eggs at the same time to achieve co-breeding;

Step 5: Remove part of the partition, and take out part of the queen bees in the queen bee breeding area 3 together with their eggs, and then raise them separately. In this embodiment, the "V"-shaped partition 7 can be taken out, and the two groups of queen bees and their eggs can be moved to another box, and separated by the partition. The remaining two groups of queen bees and their eggs in the box are in Under the separation effect of the flat plate partition 6, the breeding area of the queen bee breeding area 3 is expanded to accommodate the increase in the number of worker bees in the box.

Under normal circumstances, the queen bee of a bumblebee can only produce 80 to 200 worker bee eggs (due to different species), so the number of worker bees in the colony is determined by the number of worker bee eggs produced by the queen bee. If multiple kings are in the same nest (2 or more), the number of worker bee eggs in the hive will at least double, and the breeding of super-powerful commercial bumblebee pollinators will be realized. In the early stage of feeding, by feeding 4 queen bees at the same time in one box, the number of worker bee eggs produced is significantly increased, the number of worker bees is 2-3 times that of a common pollinator colony, and the pollination efficiency is 3-3 times that of a common pollinator colony. 4 times. The feeding of multiple queen bees also has the effect of inhibiting the premature spawning of worker bees, preventing premature aging of the bee colony, and prolonging the pollination time, which is more than 2 weeks longer than the pollination colony of common commercial bumblebees.

It can be seen that the multi-queen breeding box and the raising method provided by the present invention increase the number of eggs laid by the queen bee and the number of worker bees by increasing the number of queen bees in the hive; meanwhile, isolation measures are taken to prevent the queen bees from killing each other, and The through holes on the board allow the worker bees to enter and exit freely in each area, mix the smell of the colony, and prevent the worker bees from biting and killing each other; more queen bees are used to suppress the premature spawning of the worker bees, and prevent the premature aging of the colony caused by the spawning of the worker bees. Thereby enhancing the pollination effect. The commercial bumblebee pollination colony cultivated by the multi-queen breeding box and the breeding method has a large number of worker bees and a long pollination time, and is especially suitable for pollinating large-scale greenhouse crops.
