Bees are very important in maintaining biodiversity and the sustainability of the ecosystem. Protecting bees through smart agricultural technologies such as BEvest is important to preserve plant diversity and the future of the planet. Recently, the mass death of honeybees has emerged as a serious problem worldwide. There is a problem of open-field beekeeping when it comes to the mass death of honeybees. Open-field beekeeping is difficult to control the temperature, making it vulnerable to honeybees sensitive to temperature changes. The recent situation of many abnormal climates caused by global warming is also believed to have affected the mass death. In addition, open-field beekeeping has a problem that it is difficult to grasp and immediately respond to natural enemies such as wasps and honeybees mites in real time. Finally, there is a reason for the lack of absolute area of the grasslands where honeybees take honey. We solved all these problems and developed benest that can preserve honeybees and plants at the same time and produce high-quality products.
