Welcome to this beekeeping website .

The intention is to present a collection of information for people interested in apicultural activities in the Philippines.

Information on beekeeping in the Philippines is scattered and sometimes hard to find.

This website containes a fast collection of information both from the internet, personal information collected during visits and discussions with beekeepers. There is a map with locations from beekeepers, reserach institutes , suppliers and where trainings can be followed.

Why is promoting beekeeping so important?
• Additional income for the different products that bees provide.
• Additional income in harvestable products as a result of pollination.
• Improvement of biodiversity in the direct area where the bees are kept.

Most important is to stimulate beekeeping in the rural areas. This can be encouraged by approaching local government units, farmers organisations and outlining the value of apicultural activities.
