PROBLEM
Bees are key species for our food security. Farmers are cooperating with beekeepers to combat ๐ปInsufficient pollination and increase yields
But traditional beekeeping requires
๐๏ธObservability of bee colony, because bees can experience ๐ฝ๏ธColony starvation , ๐Colony without a queen, ๐งถSwarming, ๐ฆInfestations and ๐ฆDiseases which weaken the colony and cause โ๏ธOverwintering collapse .
Observability is typically solved with a
๐ช๐ปPhysical labor and ๐๏ธTime-consuming inspections. Dressed in a protective suit, in the summer heat, every week, you need to lift 20 kg beehive sections designed 150 years ago and notice small details while you are getting stung by defending bees, ๐Intrusive inspections.
As your apiary grows, this becomes
๐ช๐ปUnscalable work. ๐จ๐ปโ๐Industrial beekeepers have ๐๏ธMultiple apiaries at ๐ฒDistant locations that are hard to reach. Existing solutions do not adequately solve these issues
