African bee keepers Ltd has been involved with the keeping of bees for in excess of 20 years now , with around 1000 bee hives that we manage in different locations of Kenya.
To be enable us run commercial honey production effectively, data has been a key element of running the honey production effectively, not only data regarding the bees and honey, but understating the environment and monitoring the behavior of the vegetation, monitoring the management of the bee hives and honey production on different sites/locations.
Monitoring the weather, monitoring honey production that is produced from different vegetation by the bees, from different nectar bearing flowers.
African Bee keepers ltd has been gathering data for a good number of years using manual systems, this has been a tedious exercise and not as accurate as we would like it to be, having accumulated a fairly good data base, we have now been able to develop an application using the smart phone technology to capture accurate real time data from the field to a computer, the data is immediately displayed on report formats that can be printed.
