I think this might be a solution for dorsata conservation

Why you should go into Honey farming

Honey farming, also known as beekeeping or apiculture, is the practice of maintaining bee colonies—typically of the species Apis mellifera (the Western honeybee)—for the purpose of collecting honey and other bee products such as beeswax, royal jelly, propolis, and pollen.

Key Aspects of Honey Farming:
1. Beehive Setup:
• Beekeepers use man-made hives (like Langstroth hives) to house the bees.
• A hive consists of boxes with frames where bees build wax combs and store honey.
2. Bee Colony:
• Each hive contains a queen bee, worker bees, and drones.
• The queen lays eggs, workers forage and maintain the hive, and drones mate with queens.
3. Location:
• Hives are placed near flowering plants to ensure bees have access to nectar and pollen.
• Clean water and minimal pesticide exposure are important for healthy colonies.
4. Seasonal Care:
• In spring and summer, bees are most active in foraging and honey production.
• In winter, hives may need insulation and supplemental feeding in colder regions.
5. Harvesting Honey:
• When bees fill and cap honeycomb cells with wax, the frames are removed.
• Honey is extracted using a centrifugal extractor, then filtered and bottled.
6. Challenges:
• Beekeepers must manage pests like the Varroa mite, diseases, and threats like colony collapse disorder.
• Climate change, habitat loss, and pesticide use also impact bee health.
7. Benefits:
• Besides honey, beeswax and pollination services are valuable.
• Beekeeping supports biodiversity and local agriculture through pollination.

Summary:

Honey farming is a sustainable agricultural activity that produces natural sweeteners and supports crop pollination. It requires knowledge, care, and attention to the environment and bee health. With proper management, it can be a rewarding and profitable venture.

Wild Bee Gelam Honey is available through our July /August.

The area of Gelam Forest we walked in is about 4km on the soft sandy ground.

The forest is beautiful and enchanted. It was really a nice field in the entrance of the forest welcoming us, reminded me of the series The little House of Prairie. Beautiful.
