apiculturist
Keeps honey producers
An apiculturist is a person who keeps bees, particularly for the production of honey and beeswax or for pollinating crops.
The term is more formal than beekeeper and often implies professional or scientific expertise in bee management, breeding, and hive maintenance.
The apiculturist inspected each hive for signs of disease.
Apiculture, the practice itself, encompasses everything from small backyard operations to large commercial enterprises.
