Solution

The correct option is C Apiculture
The raising and care of bees for commercial or agricultural purposes is known as apiculture. It is the maintenance of honeybee colonies, commonly in hives, by humans. A beekeeper keeps bees in order to collect honey and other products of the hive (including beeswax, propolis, pollen and royal jelly) to pollinate crops. A location where bees are kept is called an apiary or bee yard. Hence, option C is correct.
