cost of around 1million Euro, according to him.<br /><br />In her remarks to grace the three-day event which is taking shape at the Julius Nyerere International Conference Centre (JNICC) under the theme of ‘Beyond Hives, Beyond Boarders’, Minister of Natural Resources and Tourism, Angellah Kairuki hailed the EU for their continued efforts to support the sector.<br /><br />The Minister said the beekeeping sub-sector was employing over 2 million people in the country and despite offering numerous socioeconomic benefits from individual to the national level its players are lacking needed financial assistance.<br /><br />“The government values the supports that are being injected by different stakeholders towards supporting the local beekeepers to transform their executives,” she appreciated.<br /><br /><br /><a

serves as a crucial podium for the country to prepare to host the 50th edition of the International Apicultural Congress, Apimondia Congress to be held in 2027 in Arusha.<br /><br />“This event expands invitations to interested beekeeping actors worldwide to attend the upcoming Apimondia congress as well as enhancing national promotion. The exhibition event facilitates cross-learning between various national and international value chain actors, Government agencies, financial institutions, non-governmental organizations, extension officers, BSOs, and individual players like input providers, beekeepers, aggregators, processors, and exporters of bee products,” she said.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCsG2wJXJP08VH3bMGPLgT8bq3z_r_tE1YJ7I5WuCaEM-8hkBwjHgzjoE5lXRpAx1dIogpf-3gTIavLl0b6eIxT6_1qYzNOAWpdZ07p8G0t0UtXs6Dp-isAPc9FhWZsxzoEjZnRCPF3on6ahv5ikmDDE0PVfIcrOJtPAUnplT7eM8V4gh0t9uzTDHK-TI/s2560/IMG-20240619-WA0164.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCsG2wJXJP08VH3bMGPLgT8bq3z_r_tE1YJ7I5WuCaEM-8hkBwjHgzjoE5lXRpAx1dIogpf-3gTIavLl0b6eIxT6_1qYzNOAWpdZ07p8G0t0UtXs6Dp-isAPc9FhWZsxzoEjZnRCPF3on6ahv5ikmDDE0PVfIcrOJtPAUnplT7eM8V4gh0t9uzTDHK-TI/w640-h426/IMG-20240619-WA0164.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLr4VEHkjr_ZoLXXFHagey9EMcYh8RYZRQK8tnSnbWvLnJYskkJeiX92vQaXrpR2N8cIMvQxQzdiohZ44gmkCUIObYtQXUNrCAHm5EgXUOLHCxMKyhrf8LbSIONkb6-aOHX6eVtldcGLxZCl0Op8HPDVTqqjLZrVckP0KKSGhRrV3m-D1aNoBEiRa3kqA/s2560/IMG-20240619-WA0171.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLr4VEHkjr_ZoLXXFHagey9EMcYh8RYZRQK8tnSnbWvLnJYskkJeiX92vQaXrpR2N8cIMvQxQzdiohZ44gmkCUIObYtQXUNrCAHm5EgXUOLHCxMKyhrf8LbSIONkb6-aOHX6eVtldcGLxZCl0Op8HPDVTqqjLZrVckP0KKSGhRrV3m-D1aNoBEiRa3kqA/w640-h426/IMG-20240619-WA0171.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /></span><br />
