Why sustainable beekeeping?
Good Beekeeping Practices are prerequisites for a sustainable, resilient but also competitive apiculture sector allowing to face the current challenges of modern beekeeping. Through the adoption of good practices, the beekeeping sector can improve the environmental biodiversity, enhance crops production and contribute to rural development. Sustainable beekeeping is the way forward for apiculture, it takes the “One-Health” approach into account and contributes to the achievement of most of the Sustainable Development Goals.
