This study assesses the extent to which beekeeping contributes to food security, ecosystems, and biodiversity as well as understanding the challenges encountered by this sector. The study puts emphasis on two factors of interest- the phenomenon of global warming and the phenomenon of war. The effects of climate change were addressed, which might lead to the migration of bee colonies to different areas, interrupted flower-bee relationships, or lowered and poorer biotic products. The effects of the war are being researched, concerning the loss of beekeeping-related assets, adverse effects of warfare on environment, and beekeepers' mobility out of their homes. In addition, the study looks for ways to curtail and bring about a new look in the beekeeping sector willing to take up current advancements in satellite imagery and machine learning.
