Delivered by JRP in Odisha with support from DFID, this honey production project expanded its beekeeping activities from 3 to 10 villages via a network of 300 women beekeepers during 2012-14. A Women Beekeepers Association (WBA) was formed to represent the interests of small-scale women producers & to build a sustainable & replicable beekeeping industry. JRP is currently strengthening the production capacity and commercial viability of the WBA to pool, store, filter & market its honey to wholesale purchasers with the ultimate aim of the Association achieving Fair Trade registration.
