The honey that bees produce is to feed themselves during the winter. If a beekeeper removes all of their honey, the bees would die of starvation during the winter as they have no way of replenishing their lost stores (no flowers in the winter). The bees are usually fed sugar syrup - a mixture of ordinary granulated sugar mixed with water.
Apart from producing honey, we need bees for pollination.
No. Bees make honey from nectar. Although the honey may contain a small amount of pollen from the flowers from which the nectar was collected, this is accidental.Bees do collect pollen and bring it back to the hive, but this is used as food, particularly for the developing larvae.
I am not sure easiest is necessarily the best word, but the reason we keep honey bees rather than any other variety of bee is for the honey. Although other bees, such as bumble bees, do make honey it is only in small amounts because they don't need to save stores for the winter (the queens hibernate, the others die). Honey bees on the other hand don't hibernate so need to build up a stock of food during the summer to take them through the winter when nectar is not available. Beekeepers take most -- but not all -- of this honey then feed the bees during the winter with sugar syrup.
Ground bees are native bees. They can pollinate plants and feed on nectar, but they do no need to create food store to survive through the winter. Almost all die off. Honey bees pollinate plants as a side-effect of their nectar-gathering activities. Because they maintain a population over winter, they need to store food. Hence, they make honey. ___________ Honey bees will be a colony of thousands in one nest, where ground bees are solitary bees, one bee (raising a brood) to the nest, though there may be dozens of these solitary nest in the same area Lar
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.
Bees live in a colony and their nest is called a hive. There is one queen bee and hives can have up to 80,000 bees. Bees eat nectar and pollen from flowers and plants. The workers make honey, which is feed to the larvae.

Honey bees make honey to feed themselves during the winter when no nectar is available. Fortunately for us, they tend to make much more than they need so we are able to remove some of it for our own use.
The more honey a hive produces - the less the bees need to work to gather nectar .
Its called 'interdependence.' The flowers need the bees to pollinate them to survive, but the bees need the flowers so they can make honey, and the female bees pollinate flowers and keep pollen on there legs to feed there larve.
You feed your buzzelgum a buttercup and a small honey picture will be above the buzzelgums head you drag him to the bee hive and the buzzelgum will produce the honey,the honey will fly out of the hive and it will sell for about 150 chocolate coins.
Humans affect honey bees by using insecticides in their gardens which kill the bees.
