ECONOMICS OF BEEKEEPING INDUSTRY

Beekeeping has been accepted on all hands as one of the fast flourishing village industries in Tamil Nadu. Its development in the recent past in terms of its contribution to the growth of employment opportunities and potentials in supply of honey for domestic consumption are rather phenomenal. Those who wish to gain a vantage point for a closer view of the vistas of its progress and the distant horizons of its growth prospects must at any cost make an in-depth study about the structural framework of the industry, its growth over the years, and the multifarious benefits it has been endowing the people from time to time. The present book is a pioneering attempt in this exploration.
This book will not only serve as a fore-runner in the economics of beekeeping but also aid as a reference book for future researchers, who will surely bud, blossom, and secrete nectar.
