It is part of the six-month training session, which commenced in August and is intended to equip beekeepers with theoretical and practical knowledge regarding beekeeping, including mangroves species,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, pollination, extraction and utilization of by-products.Beekeepers receive training in candle production during beekeeping training session.According to Annette Arjoon, Chairperson, Mangrove Action Committee, this initiative is part of the livelihood component of the Mangrove Restoration Project, which has been generously supported by the European Union.The idea behind the livelihood component of the resuscitation of mangroves as a natural form of sea defence project, is to ensure the sustainability of the mangroves after the project concludes in 2013.Arjoon emphasised that each beekeeper has their own stretch of mangroves which they have converted into apiaries. This, she emphasized, would ensure the protection of at least 100 kilometers of mangroves.She stressed that the generation of income from the mangroves will motivate beekeepers to advocate for the preservation of mangroves as they would not want their livelihoods to be destroyed.According to the training session facilitator, Linden Stewart of the Kingdom Apiary Products and Supplies, some of the by-products of a hive include honey,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, bees wax, bee pollen,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, Roy jelly, proplis and bee venom.He noted that session served to inform beekeepers that the by-products of a hive can be converted into useful marketable end-products. Stewart said that in some countries,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, including the United States, the bee industry is huge.
