Abstract
The present study was conducted at the experimental farm of Sakha Agricultural Research Station Mahlet Musa, KafrelSheikh Governorate during the period from the beginning of September 2012 to the end of August 2013.The study handelt the effect of type of beehives on foraging activity, stored pollen and honey yield. The mean numbers of incoming workers/colony/minute stored pollen area/ colony with square inchs and honey yield/colony with kg. The results which obtained from colonies housed in foam beehives were significantly higher than those from langstroth colonies ones during all experimental periods. The highest mean number of incoming workers/colony/minute and stored pollen area were recorded in colonies of Foam beehives during May and June. The amount of honey yield per colony was arranged in descending orders as follow: clover honey > citrus honey > cotton honey.
