FUTURE PROSPECTS OF THE SUNDERBAN BEEKEPING CLUSTER

The cluster has got bright future prospect because of availability of the raw honey, the favourable climate and varieties of plants, flora and fauna, artisan’s traditional skills, low capital investment, favourable enabling environment, marketing opportunities, scope for self employment and support of the Banks.

The scheme is a right step to regenerate traditional industry in terms of changes in practices so that the scope of employment and income generation increases and a large number of honey hunters/keepers get the benefit. Given the enhanced skill trainings, credit support, improved user friendly machineries/technologies, common facility centres, capacity development trainings, networking with important stakeholders, convergence of resources from other departments and many other structural management inputs it is expected that the project would create a positive impact in the sector in terms of economic and social gains for the poor and needy honey hunters.
