In recent years, more attention has been paid to the biologization of agriculture in the cultivation of agricultural crops. Despite the large variety of entomophilic plants in Russia, their distribution area is uneven. Their significant areas are concentrated in the European part, in intensive agriculture zone. At the same time, over 90% of wild honey plants, with a huge honey reserve, are located beyond the Urals, in Siberia, in the Far East. In such conditions, beekeepers in Central Russia must achieve high honey flows, mainly from agricultural entomophilic crops. The article discusses the issues of organizing a full-fledged feed base for beekeeping and provides various options for specialized crop rotations for beekeeping farmers' households. The organization of a full-fledged honey base for bees, through the rational use of different crop rotation models, in modern conditions will contribute to the sustainable development of beekeeping and crop production.The use in crop rotations of perennial grasses, good nectariferous plants, such as melilot, alfalfa, sainfoin, Eastern galega, is possible only in farms with animal husbandry. Such grasses are the best precursors in crop rotation and allow solving a complex of problems in the field of forage production, soil protection from erosion, and nitrogen enrichment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
