Comments / Commentaires : Beekeeping still at subsistance level with one to 10 hives per individual or group. We engage youth clubs,community groups especially women. There is high demand for honey and other hive products in the country as their natural cures are highly recognised. There are some Non Governmental organisations which are working with community groups and facilitate the establishment of apiaries.
