Bee Keeping Program
For the period of May to July 2019, the project planned to monitor the performance of the program so as to produce more honey, find markets for the honey.
So far for the program is going on very well as honey producing period has started in the centers. Nsadi has realized 25 bottles of honey this month of July and Naktepa has also harvested their honey but not yet processed. So a total of 103 bottles has been collected since last year, and we are expecting to have more money from this program.
