2. Description de l'Approche de GDT

2.1 Courte description de l'Approche

Honeybee keeping improves pollination of trees, shrubs, and crops, which will increase the productivity of orchards, arable lands, grassland

2.2 Description détaillée de l'Approche

Description détaillée de l'Approche:

Beekeeping provides an opportunity to improve the economic use and ecosystem sanitation in the future. On the one hand, honeybee keeping improves pollination of trees, shrubs and crops, which will increase the productivity of orchards, arable lands, grassland and highland areas also households got high-quality honey and income. In addition, an approach is supporting households using the existing natural features, population improved their living standards by increasing the production of environmentally sound and high-quality honey, then sold at local markets.

Shaidon village has 238 households and 1651 people are living. Shaidon village is located at a distance of 35 km from the district center. According to statistics, the area of land used in the village is 886 hectares. Of these, 60 hectares are household plots, 26 hectares are private farms and 800 hectares occupy pastures. The population is engaged in breeding 470 heads of neat cattle, 520 heads of small cattle, 5 horses, 120 donkeys, 460 chickens and 60 turkeys. On average, each household has 0.08 ha of plots. The soil in the village is included in the category of gray soil. The annual rainfall in the village is up to 700 mm. Winter lasts for 3 months. The terrain is flat, the source of drinking water is groundwater and natural water resources.

An approach supported on behalf of the ELMARL Project. Shaidon village has expanded and favorable opportunities for the development of the beekeeping sector. and bee families were provided to 25 households that are the CIG members. And the CIG members considers that it necessary to strengthen the productivity of fruit trees in the village, through the development of beekeeping sector, as the result provided bee colonies (hives), appropriate uniforms and supplies, wax and medicines, so that ensure the production of ecologically pure honey, the appearance of additional income and new working places. Farmers have purchased the following units under the Project: 25 hives, 25 bee colonies, 1 pc. smothe king device, 1 pc. special device for collecting honey, 15 pcs. protective clothing, 150 kg of sugar and medicines the purchase of which as well transportation of hives and bee families from Khatlon region were funded by the Project. Arrangement, moving and care of bees is assigned to the farmers.
