METHOD FOR OZONATION OF GROUP OF BEE HIVES Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC A01K51/00 A01K55/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agriculture, in particular to beekeeping and can be used to create favourable living conditions of bees by stimulating their spring development, treatment and preventive measures, disinfection of fodder. Method for ozonation of a group of beehives involves supply of ozone to the beehives. At that, ozone is dosed into each beehive depending on the amount of frames contained therein, and the ozone treatment time is determined by the formula , where Q_c – capacity of supply compressor, m³/h, C_O3 is concentration of ozone, mg/m³, T_pr is processing time, h, n is number of frames, pcs., m_1frame is weight fraction of ozone, which should be received by 1 frame. And if spring development of bees is stimulated, then ozone concentration C_O3=32 mg/m³ and its mass fraction m_hive=64 mg per 1 frame, and if the therapeutic treatment is carried out, these parameters are respectively equal to 50 mg/m³ and 2.1 mg per 1 frame.

EFFECT: increase of productivity and safety of bees, as well as reduction of preventive treatment of beehives with chemical preparations.
