I would be focusing on other types of farming long before I worried much about beekeeping. It's a wild stretch to consider it harmful for bees, and if the planet is to survive we should probably do all we can to keep them around. You could argue that you are benefiting from them still I suppose, but we all benefit from bees pollinating even if they are wild bees.
