The invention relates to a breeding method for improving honey yield of apis cerana. The breeding method utilizes beehives to breed two queen bees in a bee colony, realizes the purpose of strong colony honey production through the propagation of the two queen bees, and mainly comprises the steps of hive separating, queen cell breeding, putting of the queen bees into the bee colony, overwintering management and brood comb exchanging. By the adoption of the breeding method, two swarms with different colony odors can be effectively prevented from killing each other in the hive to reduce repulsionof the swarms, and when the swarms in the hive are crowded, a honeycomb frame is added in the hive, a brood comb and a honey comb are placed in the honeycomb frame, therefore the enthusiasm of comb making, insect breeding and collecting of worker bees is facilitated, swarming is not liable to generate, the apis cerana can reproduce quickly, especially when the pollen-shedding nectar-secreting period of nectar and pollen plants comes, field bees of the right age are multiple, nectar collection is facilitated, the honey yield is increased, double harvest of honey and pollen can be obtained, andcomprehensive economic benefits of the apis cerana can be improved.
