• Materials for the hives

    With my group we have done an interview about materials used for the hives. Before that, here is an identity card:

     

    Name: Connected hive                                             Materials: Wooden box and frames

    Beginning of the project: March 2017                  Size: 50*50*50

     

    This project aims at raising awareness about beekeeping. The lifespan of a hive is the lifespan of a queen bee: about 5 years. A hive can accommodate approximately 50 000 bees. The hives will be placed on the balcony of the CDI. There will be 2 maybe 3. For a hive, the price is 150 euros plus the swarms which also cost 150 euros. After having bought the hive, it's necessary to buy the equipment like sensors, cables, etc, to monitor these hives at a distance. All these equipments were purchased on an American site : Adafruit. Solar panels will be installed in order to power the hives with energy. Other hives will be installed at the “Jardin des plantes”.
