Abstract

The use of bioactive substances in apiculture as a composition of sugar supplements normalizes the course of the biological processes – it activates enzyme systems, increases the digestibility of nutrients and also increases immune resistance to adverse environmental factors. Beekeepers widely use mineral compounds, decoctions and tinctures of plant raw materials, which cause a certain physiological effect when given in small dosages, and contribute to the production of ecologically pure apiculture products. Stimulating supplement for bees based on sugar syrup, enriched with Taxifolin antioxidant (15 mg pr. beehive), once during autumn and twice during spring, contributed to an increase in the egg production of the queen bee and honey productivity of the experimental beehive, compared to the control beehive by 16.5-13.5% and 21.9 %, respectively.
