Many people wonder what the best farm animal is and, with a ranking of 6 popular farm animals, we can give you the answer. For number one, we have bees; now, a lot of people think that bees are not farm animals; however, bees are very common animals when it comes to farming. The first reason bees are so incredible is that bees make beeswax, and beeswax is used for so many different things including, but not limited to, candles, lip balm, leather, wood polishes, and binding agents for medicine. Second, bees are an incredible money-making source because of how versatile beeswax is and because of the other things that bees make. Finally, bees bring pollen to the agricultural field, and this pollination adds an estimated 15 billion dollars in crop value. With all of this information, putting bees first on this list makes the most sense.
