Presently raw honey is sold in the market which is valued at very low price. With
the processing of honey the moisture content will be reduced and the flavor of honey
could be maintained with attractive packaging
The processed honey will be soled in the market at higher price. In return the artisans
will get more income return compared to what they are presently getting.
Besides providing facilities to the artisans it will also help act as production
centre on a commercial basis.
The artisans will get assured source of supply and technical supporting organization.
Artisans will get their inputs from the centre at reasonable prices.
