Support stronger, healthier hives and improve honey productionwith targeted natural bee nutrition.

Stronger Hives. Healthier Bees. Better Honey.

Healthy hives depend on complete and balanced nutrition. AgriSea partners with beekeepers who want to strengthen hive performance, improve resilience and lift productivity throughout the honey season. AgriSea Bee Nutrition is a scientifically formulated and certified organic nutritional supplement designed to support honey bee health all year-round, particularly during periods of high demand or nutritional stress such as pollination and honey flows. It delivers a complex blend of amino acids, trace elements and minerals that work with bees' natural biology to support brood rearing, foraging strength and long-term hive vitality.

How Does AgriSea Work?

AgriSea Bee Nutrition supplies all the key nutrients bees need to thrive, especially when natural floral sources are limited or nutritionally incomplete. It delivers essential amino acids, vitamins B and C, minerals, trace elements, carbohydrates for energy and lipids for hormone development in naturally chelated forms that are readily absorbed by the bee.

During periods of stress, illness or high workload, bees can lose the ability to self-produce certain nutrients. AgriSea Bee Nutrition helps fill these gaps, supporting brood rearing, energy production and immune function when bees need it most.

Made from New Zealand native seaweed and selected essential herbs, AgriSea Bee Nutrition is cold-fermented using a proprietary brewing process to preserve the integrity of its natural ingredients without chemicals, freezing or dehydration. The result is a highly bioavailable liquid supplement that integrates seamlessly into standard feeding regimes, including sugar syrup, pollen patties or water.

Backed by independent research, industry trials and on-the-ground beekeeper experience, AgriSea Bee Nutrition will help you build stronger, healthier hives, improve productivity and support long-term bee survival in an increasingly demanding environment.

Frequently asked questions

What nutrients are included in AgriSea Bee Nutrition?

AgriSea Bee Nutrition delivers a complete nutritional profile designed to support all aspects of bee health. It contains all 10 essential amino acids required for growth, reproduction and maintenance, plus eight additional non-essential amino acids to support stressed hives. It also provides key vitamins including B2, B3, B5, B9 and B12 for brood development, complex carbohydrates (like mannitol) for energy, lipids for hormone production, and a full range of trace minerals. These nutrients are delivered in bioavailable forms via a natural, cold-fermented seaweed and herb blend, making them easy for bees to absorb.

How does AgriSea help hives?

During times of stress (such as high pollination workloads, nutritional gaps or disease pressure), bees may lose the ability to self-produce certain non-essential amino acids and struggle to maintain energy and immune function. AgriSea Bee Nutrition helps fill these gaps by supplying essential and non-essential amino acids, carbohydrates for energy, lipids for hormone balance, and vitamins critical for brood rearing. This improves overall hive resilience, supports recovery, and maintains population strength. Beekeepers who use AgriSea Bee Nutrition have observed healthier "fat and hairy" bees even during periods of high demand or environmental stress.

Can AgriSea improve honey yields and brood production?

Yes. Trials have demonstrated measurable benefits for hive productivity. Feeding AgriSea Bee Nutrition during spring build-up increased brood production by 80% compared with sugar syrup alone. This early stimulation boosts the foraging population ahead of honey flows. Beekeepers also report honey yield increases of 20% to 123% in operational trials. By supporting brood development, colony growth, and foraging efficiency, AgriSea helps hives reach their production potential, particularly during demanding pollination and honey seasons.

Does AgriSea support hive disease management?

AgriSea Bee Nutrition has been shown to reduce the prevalence of the gut pathogen Nosema ceranae in trials run by Plant & Food Research. Nosema infection impairs nutrient absorption, shortens bee lifespans, and reduces brood production. While AgriSea is not a treatment or medicine, its comprehensive nutrition helps bees maintain gut health and improve resilience under disease pressure. Regular feeding as part of a broader hive management programme can help colonies better withstand stressors and maintain long-term performance.

How is AgriSea Bee Nutrition used in a typical feeding programme?

AgriSea is a liquid supplement designed to integrate seamlessly into standard feeding regimes. It can be mixed into sugar syrup, added to pollen patties, or supplied via water or as a drench. Application timing and rates are flexible: beekeepers use it during spring build-up, prior to honey flows, during pollination contracts, or to support recovery in autumn and winter. Because it is highly bioavailable, only small amounts are required, making it easy to administer across multiple hives or commercial apiaries.

Is AgriSea safe for bees, honey, and the environment?

Yes. AgriSea Bee Nutrition is BioGro Organic certified and Non-GMO Certified, and has been independently tested to ensure no heavy metals like zinc, cadmium or nickel accumulate in honey, even at high application rates. This cold-fermented seaweed and herb blend preserves natural nutrients without chemicals, freezing or dehydration to maximise the extraction of available ingredients. AgriSea's natural production method, combined with careful formulation, ensures the product is safe for bees, compliant with organic standards, and does not compromise honey quality. Beekeepers can confidently use it across all hive types and honey operations.
