This video showcases a large scale bee farm (honey farm), 1-wide tileable layout (mostly), that does not require dispensers prefilled with bottles and is very resource friendly. It goes back to a video by Stromne ( https://youtu.be/QKEX1J54VeU?si=GU213yg2g1S5XU-y) who created the basic design. I added a minecart system that allows to use this farm for a large number of beehives (up to 320, as per limit of a hopper minecart). 

The farm integrates the crafter that will be introduced in Minecraft 1.21 and recycles all bottles, so it can run forever on one double chest of emtpy bottles and creates shulker boxes of honey blocks. Alternatively you can build it in 1.20 and use a shulker loader for honey bottles.

Tested in v1.20.4 and 1.21.1. 

It took me just over 2 hours to build the farm (not counting bee breeding and material collection). Of course you can build smaller versions of the farm with less hives. The farm as in the world download produces over 700 honey blocks per hour, or 2800 honey bottles without the crafter. I also included a small honeycomb farm that uses the traditional layout but I added a crafter integration that automatically crafts the required shears from iron blocks. Both farms fit into one 3x3 chunk area so they can be loaded with one chunkloader.
