There is always an increasing demand for honey across the world. Most of the honey is being collected from wild resources (forest) and a limited population is engaged in rearing bees. Due to less technical knowledge and poor infrastructure, honey production is less. A great potential exists in this area when this unorganized sector can be established into an organized one for the betterment of society.
At the village level, successful honey production provides nutritional and economic security and also empowerment to farmers, farm women, and rural youth. Beekeeping also helps conserve natural resources. There is a need to impart improved technical know-how to traditional beekeepers to facilitate the adoption of improved technologies available in this area.
The certification may be required for beekeepers to seek financial help from banks, non-governmental or governmental agencies, etc.

- Impart education about modern beekeeping.
