Success Story: This farmer is earning 7 lakh rupees annually from beekeeping

Success Story: Honey is as good for your health as it is for the person who makes it. Beekeeping has become an important source of income for farmers. Beekeeping for honey production has become an increasingly popular venture. Many farmers are now adopting it and earning lakhs of rupees. Ramesh Kumar, who lives in Singhia village of Samastipur district, has been doing beekeeping for the last eight years. He is also earning well from this.

Earning up to 7 lakhs every year

At present, Ramesh Kumar is raising bees in about 300 boxes. According to Ramesh, an income of 5 to 7 lakh rupees is made every season, provided the weather is favorable and timely care is taken. According to Ramesh, beekeeping is a business that requires a lot of hard work, but it gives a lot of profit. In this work, one has to stay awake all night and feed sugar to the bees by making them sit in the off-season. According to farmer Ramesh, his father has taught him this work. He has been working very hard since doing this work eight years ago. His father laid the foundation of this business and now he is taking it forward.

Has to stay away from home for six months

According to Ramesh, honey production is a much more lucrative career than a regular business. To collect pollen for the bees, they roam around flower gardens like mango and litchi with their boxes throughout the season. According to Ramesh, he roams around collecting food for the bees for six months and sits at home for the rest of the six months giving them sugar. He believes that beekeeping is a business that can give high profits quickly if done with the right training and commitment. Farmers like Ramesh are real examples of how hard work and creativity can lead to tremendous success even in traditional companies.
