Farm Game System
Mini Game with Two Royal Jelly Prizes
Now, in the bee area, each of the bee stables is surrounded by some curious visitors. They have never seen honeybees work that close in their lives.
And the honey bees also do not attack as long as they are not disturbed, so the visitors can be calm and just need to pay attention to their own actions so as not to disturb the bees.
Aksa also smiled happily because the visitors could enjoy this activity. Then, he cleared his throat and started talking to a colony of bees circling his body.
"This area of bees is not just about collecting honey. This is an ecosystem that we love and value. Bees are incredible creatures. They make so many positive contributions to our nature and society" Aksa said in a calm voice.
"We want to make sure that these bees have a safe and healthy environment to live and work in. We hope this area will also be an inspiring place to learn," continued Aksa.
The visitors listened to Aksa's words seriously, then, there was one visitor who raised his hand. Looks like the visitor wanted to ask Aksa a question.
"You want to ask? Please." Aksa smiled and nodded, she invited the visitor to ask a question.
"I've heard that honeybees play an important role in the ecosystem. Can you explain it?" The visitor's voice sounded excited, it seemed like he was a young boy.
"Of course, it's easy." Aksa smiled and nodded. Then he began to explain what the important role for the ecosystem is.
First is the pollination. Honeybees are the main pollinator for many flowering plants. As they collect nectar from the flowers, the pollen sticks to their bodies and spreads to other flowers when they visit.
It helps in the formation of fruit and seeds of plants, which are essential for plant reproduction and the survival of ecosystems.
The second is ecosystem sustainability. Flowering plants are an important part of the food chain in ecosystems. If honeybees are absent, the population of these plants will be threatened, affecting herbivorous animals that depend on plants.
The third is biodiversity. Honeybees also help support biodiversity by ensuring different types of plants can grow and thrive. It creates a diverse habitat for a variety of other animal and plant species.
"So that's why weak honey plays an important role." The visitor nodded his head understanding Azam's explanation.
"I want to ask!" At this moment, there was also a visitor with a heavy voice who seemed to be an adult man who wanted to ask Aksa a question as well.
"Please." Aksa smiled and let the visitor ask a question.
"How do bees communicate? He said it's with an antenna?" ask the visitor to Aksa.
"Oh? Good question." Aksa smiled, then she started explaining.
"First, they can give off pheromones or special odors that indicate colony conditions or hazards. In addition, they can touch each other with their antennas to communicate directly."
"Secondly, they use vibrations in the nest to communicate. They can produce vibrations that indicate various messages, such as danger or food needs."
"And third, do you know the bee dance?" Aksa does not explain everything, but throws questions to the visitors so that their interaction is more alive.
But at this moment, there was a woman who raised her hand and said, "Honeycrackers perform a bee dance which is a special dance, to inform the colony about the location of the food source."
"What a good answer! There are two types of bee dancing. If anyone manages to answer it, then I'll give her royal jelly!" Aksa smiled and made a mini game.
The visitors screamed in excitement because they knew what royal jelly was, which was something produced by bees and was quite difficult to produce.
Aksa smiled seeing their reaction. He thought that giving honey would be less cool because honey can be purchased in the sales area soon, but not with royal jelly which is a special product.
But Aksa also stressed not to find out on the internet because it is not exciting. So, some visitors work together to brainstorm to find the answer.
Aksa pulled out her phone and took photos of the visitors who were discussing. Then he immediately uploaded it on Sajaya Farm social media account with the description 'mini game in the bee area'.
After that, the post got a lot of comments from netizens. Many ask what they are playing and if there is a prize to be had.
But Aksa did not see those comments because at this moment there was one person who raised his hand and there were several people behind him who seemed like they had managed to think of an answer.
"Say," said Aksa to the man who raised his hand.
The man took a deep breath and replied, "Dance is spinning! This dance is performed by bees in a swirling manner to tell the colony that there is a food source relatively close to the hive."
"Value a hundred to you. Where are the others?" Aksa smiled because the man's answer was correct, he then looked towards the other visitors.
At this moment, there was another person who said, "Dance dancing. Used when a food source has a location far enough from the nest."
"Value a hundred for you too. You can take the royal jelly later after it comes out" said Aksa who was happy because the two men's answers were correct.
The visitors behind protective clothing, they look forward to how the taste of royal jelly produced by honey bees at Sajaya Farm.
After doing a mini game, they immediately resume their activities. Aksa also opened the beekeeping carefully and began to check the condition of the honeybee colony.
He examined the quality of the hive, the production of honey, and the health of the bees one by one. Because he has learned what diseases can attack honey bees.
When the time is up, Aksa immediately takes the visitors out of the bee area. He also returned to his office to finish his work that had piled up on the desk.
But what Aksa does not realize is that visitors who enter the bee area immediately upload photos or videos of their activities in the bee area to their respective social media accounts.
This makes more people curious about the area of honey bees. Moreover, they were very surprised when Aksa could interact with the honey bees without protective clothing.
In fact, to interact with bees without protective clothing is very difficult because it is necessary to build a very close relationship with the bees.
