A Correct answer
Explanation

 Reason: The place where bees are reared for commercial honey production is called apiary. It is a bee farm where beehives of honey bees are kept and bees are reared for obtaining honey from them. Hive is an enclosed structure in which honey bees live and raise their young ones. Natural beehives are simply nests, while man-made hives are found in apiaries. Aviary (avia - bird, ary - place to live) is a large enclosure where birds are confined. Unlike cages, aviaries allow birds a larger living space where they can fly. Orchard is a large garden where trees are grown for food production. Here, fruit- or nut-producing trees are grown on commercial scale.
