Summary:
- No artificial feeding (no sugar syrup, no substitute pollen),
- locally adapted bee breeds suited to the location,
- natural cell size as was common more than 100 years ago (small cells < 4.9 mm),
- natural comb arrangement (as in the wild swarm),
- unlimited brood nest,
- no migration of colonies,
- controlled drone brood without installing extra drone combs (https://thedrones.bioapi.es/),
- no treatments whatsoever (neither chemical nor organic),
- allowing crises (weak colonies die out — natural selection),
- absolutely pure, residue-free wax (no chemical residues from previous treatments), etc.
