Abstract
The study was carried out in Wolaita, Hadya, Dawuro zone and Konta Special Woreda. The study was used household and key informant interview. The objective of the study was assessment of major opportunities and constraints of Honey production in central zones of SNNPR. Availability of ready and eager beekeepers to follow modern technology path way, availability of natural forest with adequate apiculture flora and water resource, availability of natural forest with adequate apiculture flora and water resource, existence of strong bee colony and a number of colonies, diversity and seasonal availability of bee forages and market access are some of opportunities of Honey production in the area. The major constraints of apiculture farming identified in the study districts comprised of lack of technical knowhow of small scale farmer, prevalence of honey bee enemies, lack of improved apiculture equipments, lack of improved honeybee flora, little attention given to apiculture development and technology introduction in the sector, lack of market oriented apiculture farming system and market information problem and others. The remedial measures for listed constraints of apiculture farming in the region recommended includes capacity building of small scale farmers, value chain analysis and value chain development adoption, pre-scaling up of proven apiary technologies and establishment of market oriented farmers apiary cooperatives.
该研究在Wolaita、Hadya、Dawuro地区和Konta Special Woreda进行。本研究采用家庭访谈法和关键信息提供者访谈法。本研究的目的是评估SNNPR中部地区蜂蜜生产的主要机会和制约因素。有愿意和渴望遵循现代技术路径的养蜂人,有充足的养蜂植物群和水资源的天然林,有充足的养蜂植物群和水资源的天然林,有强大的蜂群和多个蜂群,蜜蜂饲料的多样性和季节性可用性以及市场准入是该地区蜂蜜生产的一些机会。研究区蜂业发展的主要制约因素包括:小规模养殖户缺乏技术知识、蜜蜂天敌普遍存在、缺乏改良的蜂业养殖设备、缺乏改良的蜜蜂区系、对蜂业发展和技术引进重视不足、缺乏以市场为导向的蜂业养殖体系和市场信息问题等。针对该地区列出的养蜂业制约因素,建议采取的补救措施包括:小规模养殖户的能力建设、价值链分析和价值链开发的采用、成熟养蜂技术的预规模化推广以及建立面向市场的农民养蜂合作社。
