Apiculture
Dans presque tous les pays du monde, les abeilles et leurs produits sont non seulement bien connus et prisés par les consommateurs, mais aussi ils fournissent des moyens de subsistance durables à de nombreux petits agriculteurs et autres communautés rurales et non rurales. Les abeilles offrent un grand potentiel avec peu d'investissements. En tant qu'une entreprise agricole, l'apiculture ne nécessite pas un titre de possession de propriété foncière ou d'affermage de ladite propriété, on peut démarrer l'entreprise avec des équipements et des outils qui peuvent être obtenus localement et, dans de nombreux cas, les compétences et les connaissances requises pour une telle entreprise se trouvent dans les traditions locales. En tant qu'entreprise commerciale, elle offre non seulement des produits divers tels que le miel et la cire, entre autres, qui peuvent être vendus sur les marchés locaux et devenir une source importante de revenus réguliers pour les familles agricoles, mais peut également fournir des services complémentaires, telle que la pollinisation des cultures. De plus, les produits apicoles améliorent la nutrition des familles agricoles et constitue une source de remèdes dans les soins de santé traditionnels.
