Research areas
• Pre-harvest management (seasonal beekeeping
management to enhance honeybee products
production and utilization
• Special honey storage, and safe transportation
• In synergy with the environment, agro-forestry,
irrigated crops, forage development (pollination)
• Gender (role of women in beekeeping VC)

Assessment of diseases and pests
√
Safety (pesticides and residues heavy metals)
Quality assessment along the VC ( standards of products and
imputes)
√
√
Rapid assessment of crude and extracted honey, and beeswax
market channels/consumers
Assess the knowledge and capacity gaps in improved
beekeeping management and utilization of honeybee products
√
√
Assessment of bee forage sources and pollen over the year and
associated types of honey produced
√
Access to knowledge/skills development of apiculture
production by rural, urban and peri-urban; male, female and
youth
√
Rapid assessment of input supply (availability and quality) and
demand and access to credit facility
