How to produce Royal Jelly?

This old beekeeper in the video is explaining in details how the royal jelly is produced in his behives. The jelly that these guys are producing must be of high quality since the environment that the guy is showing looks really pure and reach with orange and lemon trees.

So this is how they do it:

First, the special construction is being used. In each royal cell they place a small amount of royal jelly. This is then used as a foundation for the embryo.

Carefully with a needle each embryo is placed into his cell. They leave those embrios in the orfan beehive for 36 to 38 hours. In this short time the bees in the hive fill the cells with royal jelly. They simply think they have to produce queens. Loads of queens.

Then after a day and a half they take the cells out of the beehive and shake the bees off. The bees have made and extension on every cell and completely fill it up with the white liquid.

The beekeper then opens each royal cells and takes out the embryo. Every queen “wannabee” gets killed.

The royal jelly liquid is then placed into jars with wooden sticks. Any metal material would reduce the quality of the genuine royal jelly.

And how do you produce it?
