Beekeeping as an industry is not much talked about and it is time that we all work together towards developing and promoting beekeeping across the country. This webinar will again bring forth valuable insights from experts towards providing solutions for issues faced by the beekeepers, the initiatives taken by the Government towards promoting beekeeping and the best practices that we can adapt for the larger benefit of the industry and the beekeepers."

Beekeepers are the focal point for all developmental programs envisaged by the India Honey Alliance and they play an instrumental role in shaping the future of the honey industry in India. While our first two webinars focused on 'The Journey of Honey', from collection to processing & the testing techniques and the benefits of honey for all of us, this one will specifically focus on beekeepers and measures to promote beekeeping." India Honey Alliance has been formed to create a unified platform for all stakeholders in the honey sector to identify issues and their probable long-term solutions, ranging from technology, training, and consumer awareness programs.
