African Beekeeping Information Portal
funded by the Wales for Africa programme of the Welsh Assembly Government
Beekeeping can generate income and reduce poverty
For beekeepers to keep bees successfully they need advice, training and information. This African Beekeeping Information Portal aims to deliver information freely to those who need it. We encourage group leaders, trainers and extension workers, across Africa, to disseminate this information to others.
