After all the Finman malarkey on other threads I was researching the pros and cons of queen excluders, and I found an interesting article about some research carried out in the States that appeared to show honey flow was much improved in hives without queen excluders. Even more interestingly it also mentioned upper entrance hives, and again appeared to show that honey production was increased in hives that had entrances above the queen excluder.
Anyone use or used this layout? It was from 1983 so a little old I suppose. Any more current research anyone know of?
