Move hives to better forage area

Moving hives to an area with better forage is a strategic solution to address lack of local forage. Scouting for locations with abundant and diverse flowering plants and relocating apiaries to these areas ensures bees have access to natural food sources. This method is particularly effective if the current apiary location is in a forage-poor environment. Moving hives is a 'none' type solution in terms of direct material costs but involves variable moving costs depending on distance and equipment. Hive moving equipment may be needed, and scouting for suitable locations requires time and effort.
