How to Record Harvests in ApiManager
Harvest records document what your colonies produced and when. In ApiManager, you can record harvested products, link them to specific apiaries and hives, select product type and variety, enter quantities, and optionally add notes — creating a clear production history for every season.

- Select apiary and hives (single, multiple, or all)
- Enter harvest name and date
- Select product and (for honey) variety
- Enter harvested quantity and unit
- Add notes and save harvest
Open the Harvests screen
- Open Harvests from the ApiManager menu.
- Tap/click Create.
Step 1: Select scope (Apiary & Hives)
Define where the harvest comes from.
- Apiary — choose the apiary.
- All Hives — harvest applies to all hives in the apiary.
- Hives — select one or more specific hives.
The hive counter shows how many hives are included.

- Unit — kg, lb, g, or other unit depending on product.
When enabled in settings, harvested products are automatically added to your storage.

Best practices
