Resumen:
Beekeeping in Argentina has grown in recent times and in the north of the country it has taken on great importance, since it became a main activity for most of the beekeepers who commercialize honey, pollen, propolis and other products of the hive. In the province of Jujuy there are two large productive poles located in the Yungas and Valles regions, with great climatic differences, in addition to a great plant diversity, which makes the honeys increase their added value, since they have organolepticcharacteristics of commercial interest. Producers currently register an average of 25 hives in each apiary, but about 20% of them are lost every year. This work addresses the influence of environmental factors, the sanitary management of hives against Varroa spp. and Nosema spp. as well as the yield in honey in four years of study. This made it possible to know the health status of each apiary, as well as the environmental influence on the prevalence of pathogens and parasites in the colonies and the effect on honey production.
