Abstract

This study provides a brief note on the key elements that causes lowering of honey bee population in the world. Rapid development of cities has caused deforestation, lesser farming and more pollution which directly affects the honey bee communities. The ground reality is that people are not aware of the uses and benefits the bees provide, they are an excellent source of nutrition to all every animals in wild and also in the cities. Planting extra flowering plants will boost the insurgence of honey bee movement in that region which will lead to increased bee population.
