Bees are used to pollinate the trees. As they fly from flower to flower, from tree to tree, pollen attached to the bees is transferred between trees which pollinates them, allowing them to produce fruit.
Bees are important pollinators. In fact, there is something of a crisis in agriculture because bee populations are declining in the face of "colony collapse disorder." Unless a cure is found, many vegetable products may become scarce and expensive. BTW, "THEIR fruit orchards," the ones over THERE.
Farmers don't usually breed honey bees, but they do need them for pollination purposes depending on the type of farm. For example, a livestock farmer doesn't need bees but a fruit farmer definitely does need bees.
The best time to rob honey bees is in he springtime when flowers and fruit orchards begin to bloom. If you rob the bees when there is no supply of nectar, the bees will not have enough honey to weather the winter.
The blossom would not be cross-pollinated so no fruit would grow. In the Sichuan region of China, pear orchards have been rapidly expanded, but over-use of pesticides has killed off all bees and the farmers, together with thousands of villagers, have to pollinate their trees by hand in order to get a crop.
For the most part, no - honeybees are fairly docile and will only attack or sting if they or the nest are provoked into attack. Otherwise, honeybees are helpful insects to have around - they are responsible for pollinating the vast majority of our fruit and vegetable fields and orchards so that the plants will produce fruit.

Bees are one of our most important pollinators and the major pollinator of fruit flowers. They are also "friendly" pollinators. In exchange for the nectar they give us honey. As beautiful as most butterflies are, when we give them nectar, they give us caterpillars which eat the crop.

The almond orchards of California are pollinated by honey bees. No bees means no pollination. No pollination means no almonds. Result - economic disaster for the almond growers.

No, bees aren't attracted to fruit in the way wasps are. That is why wasp traps are best baited with fruit or fruit jam, then they don't catch bees.
Bees typically do not sting fruit, but they will feed on decaying fruit. Wasps are also attracted to fruit that is decaying due to the sugars in the fruit.
yes they are called sweat bees
