NDDB recently held a seven-day training program on scientific beekeeping at Katarva in Banaskantha district of Gujarat.
National Bee Board and Banaskantha Milk Union under National Beekeeping and Honey Mission helped the NDDB in organizing the event.
It is worth a mention that the central govt sees beekeeping as one of the alternative sources of income for the farmers.
Several cooperative bodies including Nafed are involved in helping farmers set up Honey FPOs.
