Honey has a long and distinguished history in the human diet. For thousands of years honey hunters have plundered the hives of wild bees for their precious honey and beeswax — a practice still common today.

Beekeeping (or apiculture, from Latin apis, a bee) is the practice of intentional maintenance of honeybee colonies, commonly in hives, by humans. A beekeeper (or apiarist) may keep bees in order to collect honey and beeswax, or for the purpose of pollinating crops, or to produce bees for sale to other beekeepers.

    Good morning,

    I’m preparing a project study on Bee keeping (Bee farming) in region 12, as one of the promoted industry by the Department of Trade and Industry – Region 12. The said project study will be distributed to entrepreneurs and potential investors to engage in this kind of venture. In regards to that, i have no suffecient data with regards to bee farming and i’m seeking your help to feed me data on this matter. Your help is highly appreciated. It would be a great help to our local community as well as to the government if this project will be expanded and pursued.

    This is my email account: dame_bas@yahoo.com.ph, mobile number: 09265793628.

    God bless and more power!

    All the best,

    Baste

    Thanks for the great information. I recently started a beekeeping hobby which I hope will develop into a full time business for me one day.

    Beekeeping can be a bit of a challenge to get started with unless you have a lot of quality information to help you quickly learn everything that you need to know.

    One great resource that I found for beginner beekeepers is http://www.thebeekeeper.info

    You should check out this site as it has a ton of articles on beekeeping.

    Thanks again!
