Overall, the
whole natural cyclical process takes between 34-36 days with 5 main stages that begins with the eggs
are laid and ends with the mature adult insects.
The life cycle of the honey bee begins when the female adult lays an egg. The female typically lays one
or two eggs every 3 days. Following that, between 9 and 10 days later, each egg hatches and the nymph
appears. In the subsequent 9 days after hatching, the immature insect grows in size and moults up to 3
times.
This moulting first takes place 5 days after the nymph emerges from the egg, then 7 days later and again
another 9 days it hatches. After that, the nymph forms into a young adult from the final shedding
process. Finally, it then takes the young honey bees 4 days to reach full maturity and the cycle life starts
again.
At the first stage of the process, the cows are released to gaze on the
grass, before being subjected to mechanical milking machines in order to
collect milk. It is done two times a day to maintain a consistent milk supply.
Subsequently, once this is completed, the raw milk is stored in refrigerated
containers. In the next stage, it is transported to a dairy by specially
designed trucks on a daily basis.
Once arrived at the facility, the fresh milk undergoes two separated
processes. On one hand, the milk is pasteurized. Processed milk is then
packaged into various containers, such as bottles, plastic jugs… which are
designed to protect the milk from light, air and contaminants. On the other
hand, the rest is converted into other dairy products: cheese, cream, and
butter. Finally, the finished dairy products are distributed to various outlets,
like convenience stores and supermarkets for consumption.
