Beekeepers
A few small-scale farmers from our program had (improvised) hives, often made from the bark of a tree (which unfortunately don’t survive). Working with them, we discovered that there are unutilized opportunities with products from bees. Now, for example, the wax is thrown away while the beeswax from Africa is known as the best in the world and the cosmetic industry pays fair money for it. But then there must be no contamination and the farmers have to be more careful with chemical agricultural products. Elias, our new employee starting tomorrow, has a lot of experience in training organic agriculture and trained the first farmers with overwhelming success in 2019. Four months after the training, Elias did a follow-up and his response was: "I have never had such a motivated group".
All beekeepers harvested honey from the aggressive African bees without protective clothing or smoker. That is why Jacana trained local tailors to make bee suits. A local metalworker produced smokers and carpenters made proper hives. In this way, just like in the water program, a Self-supply chain has been set up, but this time for beekeeping. The trained beekeepers have formed a cooperative, Eastern Beekeepers Cooperative (EBC). Together with Jacana, a honey processing plant will be built and with that the circle is completed and the beekeepers can hygienically process their honey and sell it bottled. In this way they can generate more income and reinvest in their beekeeping. In 2020 Jacana will train 100 beekeepers who will process their honey in the honey plant.
