The first picture diagram illustrates the steps in the process of honey production by honeybees, while the second flow chart depicts how honey is produced using equipment by a specialist.
It is clear that there are several stages in the roles of honeybees and a beekeeper in the production of honey, beginning with an egg left in a honeycomb by a queen bee and the honeycomb’s removal from a hive by the beekeeper and ending with nectar left in the hive to form honey, while finished honey jars are distributed and sold publicly. It can also be seen that the process is rather complex and requires both manual and automated work.
The process in the picture diagram commences when the queen bee leaves an egg in the honeycomb. After three days, the egg turns into a larva. After this process is completed, it takes a week for the larva to grow fully. In this stage, it is important that the bee be given three more weeks before leaving the hive. Stages five and six both involve gathering nectar from a flower, as well as leaving it in the hive to convert the nectar into honey.
Looking at the flow chart, we can see that the production starts when the beekeeper pulls the honeycomb from the beehive. The next stage involves extracting the honey from the honeycomb, which is done through the use of a special machine. Once extracted, the honey is boiled and cleaned. Moreover, the honey is put into jars. Ultimately, the end product is made available for sale.
