Abstract :This study has investigated how climatic parameters affect honey yield in İzmir Province under the conditions of migratory beekeeping. The climate parameters of the years 1990-2020 obtained from the Turkish Statistical Institute (TURKSTAT) and the General Directorate of Meteorology were used in this research. The data were analyzed considering the routes used by migratory beekeepers in İzmir province to transport their colonies, and the effects of climatic parameters in these regions on honey yield were determined using a decision tree algorithm. The average minimum temperature was identified as the first effective factor for honey yield. This was followed by average wind speed, average relative humidity, average maximum temperature, total precipitation and average temperature. Based on results the average honey yield per hive is predicted to be 26.29 kg in climatic conditions where the average minimum temperature is greater than 10.81°C, the relative humidity is more than 66.03% and the average temperature is more than 18.36°C.Keywords : Arıcılık, iklim değişikliği, karar ağacı, bal verimi
