From Oscar Perone Master Beekeeper

Mr. Perone, Master Organic Natural Beekeeper in Argentina, has a very informative Facebook page (which includes a Spanish/English translator).

On the subject of feeding the bees, he argues that sugar is a no-no, encouraging beekeepers to leave enough honey after harvest for the bees to feed themselves. He offers the following diagram for the ideal year-round beehive.
