Royal jelly production
Royal jelly production requires rigour and compliance with a stringent schedule: one day too early or too late and all the hours of hard work go to waste.
The production technique relies on a bee colony feeling orphaned. This state triggers enhanced secretion of this enriched larvae royal jelly broth by young bees known as ‘nurses’.
The four production steps
1
Grafting
The larvae from a frame are placed in artificial royal cells
2
Insertion in the hive
The frame containing the artificial cells with the larvae are placed in the orphan hive
3
Harvesting
The frame is removed from the hive three days later
4
Extraction of the jelly
The jelly is extracted from the cells and filtered. A new cycle can then begin
