The line graph demonstrates the population of bees present in beehives across four distinct time periods from 2000 to 2024.
Overall, there was a consistent pattern across all categories, and all figures experienced a sudden increase in the second half of the period. However, all of them saw significant declines by the end. The number of bees in the hives peaks in June and hits its lowest point in August in all years.
In 2000, the number of bees in May, June, July and August were equal to 10000, 12000, 8000, and 3000 species, respectively. In the first 14 years, all categories preserved their initial values, with some fluctuations, except for July where the number of bees saw a noticeable decline of nearly 2000 species. Moreover, the regular quantity of bees in August jumped from 2000 to 5000 in 2006, before falling back to the initial value in the years that followed.
A significant shift occurred in 2014 when all lines began to grow sharply by 8000 bees, except the line for August which saw a less noticeable growth of 3000 species. All figures then stayed very similar until 2022, before all of them plunged and reached their lowest numbers. In 2024, the bee population in the given months ranged from 12000, in June, to no bees detected in August.
