Busy centre of sweet production (6)
I believe the answer is:
apiary
This might be a double definition.
'busy centre' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'sweet production' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for apiary that I've seen before include "Beehive collection" , "Bee colony" , "group of workers?" , "A place for bee-hives" , "Collection of hives" .)
