Abstract

Ancient Egyptians favored bees as a food source. The native bee in Egypt, Apis mellifera lamarckii, has importance in ancient Egypt's ecosystems, in its ability to pollinate flowers and their defence effects against bee pests and diseases. More than 4,000 years ago, bees with beekeepers appeared on the walls of Egyptian temples. As a result, the job of beekeeper emerged for the first time in history, which is the category involved with growing honey bees, breeding them, and collecting their products. Beekeeping is fraught with difficulties. Beekeeping in Egypt has problems because there is insufficient regulation of the bee industry. There is no regulation of bee pastures. Despite the fact that Egypt is a source of honey bees and queen bees, the procedure is not well-organized enough to benefit from the Egyptian bee richness. In the absence of basic knowledge, it is difficult to make decisions in this area, and there is also a disconnect between the academic studies on bees and the challenges faced by beekeepers on the ground. The availability of insurance for the beekeeper on his apiary is required to solve an issue like the extinction of native beehives. As well as regulating the creation of native bee habitats. It should be fed in isolated habitats that imitate their native environment, with responsible authorities monitoring and tracking his locations and conserving Egyptian bee genetic maps. Process of beekeeping regulation. In the last few decades, the Egyptian honey bee has seen a drop in the number of hives in most of its ecological areas, prompting a slew of study investigations to try to figure out what's causing this. This conceptual paper will look at some of those factors and see if there are any potential solutions that could aid in the conservation of native honey bees.
