To see them through the winter, the average colony of honey bees needs about 35 pounds of honey in their stores. They may make more, and it is this surplus that beekeepers will collect. Beekeepers may even take most of the honey, but will replace it by feeding the bees with sugar syrup.
The amount of honey that can be collected depends on a number of factors: the size of the colony; the weather through the summer; the amount of available forage plants; and the amount of space in the hive, among other things. At the end of the season there could be anything from no honey at all to 50 to 100 pounds in a hive, and although not common there are records of much more from one hive in a season.
It can vary considerably depending on weather patterns. Given good conditions, 100 pounds isn't unheard of.

every spring and summer,bees produce over 10,000 pounds of honey each year. but scientific studies show that bees don't accutally eat honey. they just invent it. so every year we get lots of honey!another way bees are very benificial is that flowers can't survive without them.the pollen in the the flowers NEEDS to be taken out in order for it to grow. so because of bees we have flowers and honey.
You can give honey to bees of any age.
Honey bees will fly when the air temperature is above approximately 10 degrees Celsius (50 Fahrenheit), so the answer to your question will depend on the time of the year and your location in the world. Bumble bees will fly in lower temperatures than honey bees.
A single honey bee produces about half a tea spoon of honey in it's entire life. A strong colony can produce 60 to 120 quarts per year. A strong colony has about 60,000 bees in the summer.
