• In this study materials include survey results which have been applied to 182 beekeeping enterprises in Erzurum, Kars and Agri provinces. Energy balance and economics were analyzed to reveal the energy efficiency of beekeeping production. According to the survey results, the energy requirement per hive in beekeeping production is 158.78 MJ. The biggest share in input energy is sugar. At the end of beekeeping production, the average energy output per hive is 152.49 MJ. The results of the research, 11.85 kg honey, 130.51 gr pollen and 5.06 gr royal jelly per hive were obtained. 98.85% of total energy output is obtained from honey production. The energy efficiency coefficient is 0.96, the specific energy coefficient which represents the amount of energy required to produce one kilogram of product is 13.40 and the energy productivity coefficient is 0.075.
