The effect of pollen substitutes feeding on the activity of honeybee was investigated including two races: FI Carniolan and FI Italian honeybee. Some food materials of high protein, sugar, vitamins and minerals content locally available were used to increase colony population, pollen collection as well as honey and royal jelly production. The pollen substitutes were: A (chick pea), B (soybean). The results showed that there were no significant differences between honey productions in the two tested, races. The data showed that there was a significant differences between two treatment, A and B of Carniolan colonies, when the pollen gathering was studied, whereas there was no significant difference between all treatments in case of Italian colonies. There was a significant difference in royal jelly production among the tested pollen substitutes hives treatment of Carniolan and Italian colonies, while there were a significant differences between the two treatments in food consumption in the two-tested races in summer season.
