### 4/5 — Honigertrag

*2026-07-13*

Hallo, danke für die schöne app. Lässt sich der Honigertrag auch einem Volk zuordnen?  Konnte bisher nur unter Lagerbestand  die Kg Honigernte angaben, aber nicht von welchem Volk ich das geerntet habe.

**Developer response:** Danke für die tolle Anregung! Genau das kommt mit Version 1.1.0: Beim Erfassen einer Honigcharge können Sie jetzt das Volk auswählen, von dem die Ernte stammt — der Lebensertrag wird direkt am Volk angezeigt. Viel Freude beim Imkern!
