    The relationship of man with bees is an ancient one. Early beekeepers were honey hunters. Later, techniques were developed which enabled people to manage them in some way. The craft of beekeeping centres around the honeybee, Apis mellifera, and the early interests were clearly to do with honey both as a sweetener and for its medicinal uses. Today there is some interest in its use for medicinal purposes but the primary interest is that of honey production and pollination. Many fruit and seed crops rely on insects to transport pollen from one flower to another to assist in pollination. However, it is not only these managed crops but also plants in the wild environment where bees are of benefit.
