Veterinary composition and methods for production and use
Veterinary compositions and methods for production and use. A method of treating bees at or near a bee hive with a first and/or second veterinary composition is described including administering to bees a veterinary composition comprising at least cannabinoid, and/or at least two non-cannabinoid cannabis compounds, with or without a carrier, thereby enhancing bees performance.
1. A method of treating bees at or near a bee hive with a veterinary first composition comprising administering to the bees a therapeutically effective amount of the veterinary first composition comprising at least one cannabinoid, and/or, at least two non-cannabinoid cannabis compounds.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said enhancing includes one or more of treating bees virus, treating bees inflammation, treating bees stress, treating bees against Colony Collapse Disorder, treating bees against Varroa , increasing the number of bee hive brood cells, including the number of bee hive sealed brood cells, improving bees pollination activity, strengthening bees immune system and improving bees honey production.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said veterinary composition comprises an extract of cannabis plant material.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein said veterinary composition additionally contains an additive selected from the group consisting of emulsifiers, antioxidants, sugars, pollen, pollen substitutes, pollen supplements, omega-3 fatty acids, vegetable oil, minerals, vitamins, fats, essential oils, invertase enzyme and combinations thereof.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein said veterinary composition additionally contains an additive selected from the group consisting of an extract of eucalyptus flowers, an extract of avocado flowers, an extract of orange blossoms, an extract of wild flowers, an extract of Tribulus terrestris and combinations thereof.
6. The method of claim 1 , comprising administering said veterinary composition to the bees in combination with at least one of bees feed, bees feed additives, sugars and protein ingredient.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein said administering comprises vaporizing the composition in the beehive, spraying the composition into the atmosphere of the beehive, spraying the composition on honeycombs in the beehive, spraying the composition on brood-containing honeycombs, incorporating the composition into beeswax used to form the beehive frames or combinations thereof.
8. The method of claim 1 , comprising administering said veterinary composition to the bees during winter.
9. The method of claim 1 , comprising administering said veterinary composition to the bees when present at or near a beehive containing brood cells, wherein the count of brood cells in said beehive, the count of sealed brood cells in said beehive or both is at least 10% greater than those in a beehive under the same conditions receiving no veterinary composition treatment.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein average size of said bees is at least 10% greater than that of bees under the same conditions receiving no veterinary composition treatment.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the bees contain Varroa and the average varroa count in said bees is at least 10% lower than that of bees under the same conditions receiving no veterinary composition treatment.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein said enhancing includes one or more of treating bees virus, treating bees inflammation, treating bees stress, treating bees against Colony Collapse Disorder, treating bees against varroa , increasing the number of bee hive brood cells, including the number of sealed brood cells, improving bees pollination activity, strengthening bees immune system and improving bees honey production.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first composition further comprises a carrier or water, and wherein the ratio of the carrier or the water to the cannabinoid by weight is greater than 5:1.
