Bees Are Better Agriculturalist Thans Humans by tracksmith: 3:18pm On Jan 11, 2019
Generally when we talk of bees what readily comes to mind is Honey. True enough, bees produce honey but they don't spend their time just thinking of honey. They do more.
Bees play an integral part in pollination. By pollinating flowers, plant are able to reproduce. They do this by unwittingly transferring pollen, a plant's male sperm cell, from one flower to another. Without pollination many plants would not be able to procreate and eventually will die out. Think of the human race, what if fathers and mothers refused to come together for procreation? What will happen to our race?
With this in mind you will understand why God gave Israel a 'Land of Milk and HONEY'. If there is honey then there are bees. And if there are bees then the land will be naturally fruitful. And if the land is Naturally fruitful then they won't have to suffer much of the curse of Adam placed on the land in Genesis. And since the land is rich and productive it can sustain a growing population of cattle thus more milk- A LAND OF MILK AND HONEY.
Most of the crops we consume are pollinated by honey bees. Research has it that as much as 70% of fruits/blossoms are pollinated by bees. Most of what we consume rely/benefit from bee pollination such as apples, beans, cabbage, cucumber, garlic, Onions, watermelon, sweetpotatoes and fruits in general.
Flowers that are visited more often by bees will produce larger and more uniform fruits than those visited less often. As if the bees are not charitable enough, they go further to use some of this nectar to make honey. Honey is a complete food with carbohydrates, protein, enzymes, vitamins and minerals. Bees produce honey, nectar, beeswax, pollen, bee bread, propolis, royal jelly and bee venom. If I may ask, what are lipsticks produced from? You guessed right BEESWAX. How many women rely on bees for revealed beauty? Bees are essential for our survival.
