    About this project

    I. Atoloye from Jorafarm and Associates Beekeepers is responsible for this project
    Verbesserung der ländlichen Leben durch Bienenzucht. The project started in 2010. Most of the farmers still harvest honey from the wild. They destroy the bee colonies in their attempt to get the honey and are attacked by bees. As a result of lot of resources are wasted as the farmers use fire to destroy the bee colonies. The project came up in other to teach farmers the modern way of beekeeping and harvesting of the honey without destroying the bee colonies thereby promoting biodiversity conservation. The project will benefit rural beekeepers in Osun State Nigeria. It will benefit 10 beekeepers in the state. It will also benefit the society through the production of pure honey and reduced dependency on sugar. This will improve the society's health. The biggest challenge is the fund to get the necessary materials. Most of the beekeepers live on less than $1/day. They are unable to make much hives for themselves. They do not have much income to get beesuites, smokers,pressers etc. They do not have access to funds also. The donations will go a long way in helping the beekeepers get the necessary apiary materials. It will improve their standard of living.
