Abstract

The present economic challenges in Nigeria call for a serious sustainable environment-friendly agricultural enterprise with a great potential that improves export earnings. It is our fervent believe that the contribution of the apiculture sector to its sustainable human development and specifically increases the income of beekeepers and traders of bee products through improved commercialization of quality bee products in Nigeria which will in turn lead to a drastic increase in the GDP of the nation. The overall goal of the Nigeria Apiculture Value Chain (AVC) Development Program is to contribute to an increase income of beekeepers and other actors on the AVC through increase in production capacity, stimulate the efficiency and competitiveness of the AVC products by improving standards, processing capacity so as to access higher value niche markets through Fairtrade International (FLO) certification or organic certifications and to achieve a total sales value of over $5 million by 2035 (Sustainable Development Goal SDG) target on Food Security. Apiculture provides highly desirable products such as honey, comb/wax, pollen, propolis, bee venom, royal jelly, apilarnil and apilanil prop, value added products and pollination services. It is of note to stress the need to urgently embrace the use of modern techniques in keeping honeybees for industrial development of Nigeria and also to enhance exportation of the products to earn growth in the Nigeria’s GDP by diversifying the monolithic economy that is presently based on crude oil exportation.
面向经济多元化的自然资源综合价值链开发:养蜂方法
尼日利亚目前的经济挑战要求建立一个具有巨大潜力的可持续、环境友好的农业企业,以提高出口收入。我们坚信,养蜂业对其可持续人类发展的贡献,特别是通过改善尼日利亚优质蜂产品的商业化,增加养蜂人和蜂产品贸易商的收入,这反过来将导致该国GDP的大幅增长。尼日利亚养蜂价值链发展计划的总体目标是通过提高生产能力来增加养蜂人和养蜂价值链上其他参与者的收入,通过提高标准来刺激养蜂价值链产品的效率和竞争力,加工能力,以便通过国际公平贸易(FLO)认证或有机认证进入价值更高的利基市场,并在2035年实现粮食安全总销售额超过500万美元的目标(可持续发展目标SDG)。养蜂业提供非常理想的产品,如蜂蜜、梳子/蜡、花粉、蜂胶、蜂毒、蜂王浆、蜂蜡和蜂蜡道具、增值产品和授粉服务。值得注意的是,需要强调的是,迫切需要利用现代技术饲养蜜蜂,以促进尼日利亚的工业发展,并通过使目前以原油出口为基础的单一经济多样化,加强产品出口,以赚取尼日利亚国内生产总值的增长。
