Beekeepinq In Argentina: 'Beekeeping, bee research, and honey production in Argentina'

摘要

NNo honey report in any beekeeping publication omits reference to Argentina. The name comes from the Latin argentium, which means silver. The Spanish called the most known geographical element of the country the Rio de la Plata (River Plate), the river of silver. In the modern era the country is best known for its capital, Buenos Aires (nice airs), considered the Paris of South America, and its agricultural commodities, mostly grown in an area known as the humid pampa adjacent to Buenos Aires, and extending to the foothills of the Andes mountains, which separate the country from its western neighbor, Chile. Perhaps beef and wine are the best known of these, but soybeans, sunflowers and other crops are also grown there. And then there is honey.
