Start with real costs

List hardware, subscription, installation and training time. Compare them with travel, inspection hours and incidents discovered too late.

Measure before concluding

choose a few simple indicators
record a baseline
start with a group of hives
review after a full season

Your result will be specific

Value depends on distance, hive count and workflow. Website examples are illustrative and should be checked against your own data.
