Abstract
Apiculture or Beekeeping is the art and science of collecting,
processing honeybee colonies of desired species having them
in specified and standard boxes, installing at appropriate sites,
managing optimum number of colonies scientifically round the
year and harnessing both direct and indirect benefits of the
activities. As such a degree or high qualification is not essential in
order to work in this profession. Apiarists can be developed and
trained to handle the enterprise. There is vast potential and scope
from diversification in Apiculture i.e. besides honey its offers scope
for production and marketing of other bee products like bee pollen,
bee propels, bee way bee venom and Royal selling. Honeybees can
also be managed as and when required for pollination of field and
Horticultural crops and for hybrid seed production in vegetables
and other bee pollination crops technologies for the production
of different products i.e. Royal jelly, bee pollen, bee porpoise, bee
venom, Queen bees, package bees etc. now available in India Thakur
