High returns from beekeeping – Dr. Kenchareddy

Dr. Kenchareddy: Beekeeping can increase yield and also help farmers become financially strong, said Ponnampet Forest College Professor Dr. Kenchareddy.

He was speaking at a beekeeping training workshop organized at the Chenanda Cup Hockey Festival of the Kodava Family Hockey Tournament organized at the General K.S. Thimmaiah Stadium of KPS School here on Sunday. There is a lot of demand for Kodagu honey. But since honey is brought from other places and sold in the name of Kodagu honey, honey is being adulterated. To avoid this, farmers should produce large quantities of Kodagu honey, he said.

There is ample scope for beekeeping in Kodagu. Consuming honey is good for health. Since honey is also used as medicine, there is a lot of demand for quality honey, he said. He provided comprehensive information including the rearing and management of bee colonies, precautionary measures, and benefits of beekeeping, and answered and guided the farmers' questions.
