The results shown in this paper try to answer some questions raised in previous work by the same authors in the incidence of solar and geomagnetic activity on productivity beekeeping not only taking into account the multi-year variability of the same but also the seasonality very strongly seen in this production line and intermodulation between it and present climate variability, also influenced by solar activity. It was carried out the honey processing data between 1979 and 2013 with monthly resolution, taking into account the total production of honey, wax and yield per hive for the whole country. As representative index Space Weather planetary geomagnetic index Ap used. The series generated and analyzed time as well as the statistical results obtained show causal links between Ap and worthy bee variables to consider for better planning of beekeeping work for the purpose of improving productivity.
