Ukraine is located mostly
in the moderate climatic zone, except for southern coast of Crimea, which
is in the subtropical zone. The southern part of Ukraine lays at the same
latitude as the northern part of Italy.
In general, the climatic
conditions and soils of Ukraine are favourable for agriculture. Flora of
Ukraine embraces about thirty thousand plants. It creates favourable conditions
for beekeeping..

flat. Only in the west there are ridges of the Ukrainian Carpathian mountains
and in the south - the Crimean mountains. The highest altitude in Ukraine

arteries. There are plenty of small rivers in Ukraine, which makes Ukrainian
landscape especially picturesque.
Historical information.
Beekeeping in Ukraine has
centuries-old history. Foreigners, which visited Ukraine, were always surprised
by "huge quantities of bees and honey" in this land. This was an outcome
of the combination of the favourable natural conditions with diligence
and keen perception of our ancestors. In the period of Kiev Rus' the honey
and wax were among the basic products of trade.
The Ukrainian researchers
have made a significant contribution to the development of beekeeping.
One of them - Petro Prokopovych (1775-1850) -
was the world's first inventor of the frame beehive. He organized a school
of beekeeping - the first in Ukraine.
Modern Ukraine is among the
world's top -10 producers of honey and other products of beekeeping. 500
thousand beekeepers collect up to 70 thousand tons of honey annually.
