Concept Note

In Xiengkhouang province, the “wild honey” produced by the Apis Cerena bee species is natural wild honey that has traditionally been harvested from both the wild forest and by beekeepers in the village wild honey production groups.  Traditionally they have managed wild queen bees in hives made of hollow tree stumps and wooden boxes. Those bees gather nectars directly from flowers in natural forest areas and organically managed fruit tree gardens for producing honey, therefore the wild honey is considered as an organic product without chemical contamination that is considered the best for health benefits and with excellent taste qualities. Importantly, bees are pollinators and facilitate plant reproduction, with more than 30% of all food crops being dependent on bees for pollination.
