Beehive and Old Faithful actually blew at the same time (which is pretty uncommon)

Question by Mike: How much honey can one beehive produce and which beehive model (i.e, Langstroth) produces this result?
How many beehives can be placed per acre? Also, which hives are the most productive, Langstroth hives, Top-bar hives, etc… ?
How many beehives can be placed per acre? Some websites state that 2 to 5 beehives can be placed in an acre. Is this true and will it increase or decrease productivity?

Also, which hives are the most productive, Langstroth hives, Top-bar hives, etc… ?
