Yes, very much so.

Because of the endemic varroa mite which is a bee parasite, beekeepers have to take continual measures to keep varroa under control otherwise the bees would eventually become weakened and die.

Any swarm with varroa that goes into the wild would probably survive at most four years.

Beekeepers also make sure the colonies survive over winter by checking they have enough food, supplementing with sugar syrup if necessary.

Beekeepers also actively monitor the colonies and will, for instance, replace the queen in a colony where the old queen is not laying well.

they gathered a lot of nectars and mix some protein to it and then they will put it on their collection. Bees help help each other by collecting more foods for them to eat :P.........
