Ecological state of honey plants in apiaries of the Tyumen region

The paper is devoted to the problems of the ecological state of honey plants of the Tyumen region. It is shown that the local conditions are very prominent for locating the apiary and its branches in the most advantageous place. As a result of the research, it was found that the flowers of the yellow clover, meadow clover and coltsfoot exhibit low cumulative properties to pollutants. Studies have shown that honey plants in the spring and summer flowering periods show different cumulative properties of pollutants. The regularity of the content of heavy metals, radionuclides and pesticides in honey plants of beekeeping areas has been established. (paper)
