What are the characteristics of Chinese bee and Italian bee?
Chinese bee is a native bee in China. It has a breeding history of more than 2000 years and is mostly black. Chinese bee and Italian bee have their own characteristics. The individual of Italian bee is larger than that of Chinese bee, so the production of Italian bee is higher than that of Chinese bee. However, the smell of Chinese bees is better than that of Italian bees. Therefore, Chinese bees are particularly good at using sporadic honey sources in nature, which is more suitable for collecting multiple honey source plants, while Italian bees are more suitable for collecting large single honey sources. Therefore, if we want to get honey from a single honey source, Italian bee is more suitable.
