Beekeeping is a crucial agricultural activity that is needed for pollination and the production of honey. For bee colonies to remain healthy and productive, ideal hive conditions must be maintained. In this study, a real-time hive condition management system is described for beekeepers based on IoT. An ESP8266 microcontroller, a DHT11 sensor for measuring temperature and humidity, and a buzzer are all components of our system. We have collected and evaluated temperature and humidity data from beehives over a long period of time by deploying our monitoring system. We go over our system's practical applications for beekeeping, such as the early identification of unfavorable environmental circumstances and the avoidance of hive stress. We recognize some issues that need additional adjustment, such as sensor accuracy and power supply. This research presents an approach for beekeepers looking to enhance hive management techniques and contributes to the expanding field of IoT in agriculture.
