Beekeeping

Since it was confirmed that food will decay, I don't see why we can't have food that can never decay. Apiculture could also make lumberjacks more valuable. Basically we should have structures that would contain bees. In order to get them, trees should randomly, even rarely, generate a visible hive. When the tree is cut, it should fall and your health should drain to make up for the stings.

There you should pick up the hive and place it inside of the structure. Overtime, the structure should create honey and there is your supply. Fires should also be used to neutralize the bees in case you don't want to lose any health during the process of picking up a hive or taking honey from the structure.

To balance such a feature, this structure should be far from housing and areas that people commonly walk through, otherwise they will lose health.

Roma Victor had bee keeping, and it worked quite well. The way they did it, you build a wooden hive, and it would then take a few days for the bees to be attracted to the hive, and populate the hive. You would then need to wait a couple of weeks for the hive to fill with a supply of honey, that could be taken from the hive. The lower your beekeeping lvl was, the more damage you took from bee stings. Once you got to a high beekeeping lvl, you would rarely take damage when working with the bees.

Don't really mind how it would work, just would be nice to finally have insects in a game.
