This campaign focuses on enhancing the livelihoods of beekeepers by reducing initial capital costs and improving income potential through sustainable practices.
The collaboration between the corporation, local government, and beekeeping associations promises a sustainable model, benefiting not only the beekeeping industry but also the local communities through profit sharing.
