Abstract:
Honey is a consumable product and it is also used extensively in making Ayurvedic
medicines. Natural honey is always in demand round the year. Natural honey is obtained
from honey bees and hence bee-keeping is a profitable activity. But it has to be undertaken
at a place where there is a very limited movement of people or vehicles. This activity has
potential to provide regular income especially in rural areas. Therefore, the government is
also encouraging this activity and Khadi and Village Industries Board extends many
incentives as well as marketing support.
