beekeepers
Honey farm workers
Beekeepers are people who raise and tend honeybees, typically for honey production, pollination services, or both.
The practice ranges from backyard hobbyists with a few hives to commercial operations managing thousands of colonies.
The beekeepers inspected their hives for signs of disease.
