2. SLM方法的描述

2.1 该方法的简要说明

Beekeeping is an activity which involves maintenance of bee colonies by using man-made hives within a selected forest area which provides the required feed and habitat resources required by bees. Through beekeeping, trees are conserved as they provide flowers hence ensuring feeds for bees. Beekeeping is used as an approach of protecting forest reserves against encroachments. Bee products, produced within the value chain, improve the livelihoods of beekeepers and communities at large while conserving the environment at the same time.

2.2 该方法的详细说明

该方法的详细说明:

Beekeeping is an activity which involves care and management of honeybees for production of bee products, mostly honey and bee-wax. Beekeeping is an environmentally friendly activity ensuring conservation of trees and other forest resources protected through it. Therefore, beekeeping is undertaken for two major purposes which are:

•Production of bee products through which livelihoods of beekeepers and communities at large are improved and;
•Protection of trees and thereby, forest water resources.

Beekeeping is largely dictated by weather/climatic conditions; hence it is very crucial for the beekeeper to understand the rhythm of various seasons for successful beekeeping.
In this approach, trainings were provided to beekeepers in a community in Tabora Region, Sikonge District, on modern beekeeping techniques and skills which involve the use of modern hives and tools for increased production of bee products. Beekeepers were trained on:

•Measures which can be taken to ensure successful honey and wax production and;
•Measures required to adapt to impacts on bees from climate change.

Representatives from the Miombo Beekeeping Group (user group) are experienced beekeepers who have been in the field for a long period. Land users/beekeepers liked the approach because beekeeping does not require a lot of time due to its seasonal nature. Therefore, a beekeeper can have, besides beekeeping activities, ample time for carrying out other production activities, e.g. agricultural activities. Also, beekeeping does not require large areas of land and beekeeping can therefore, be integrated with other activities.
Insufficient capital for accessing modern hives and tools is one of the hinderances which make it hard for some of beekeepers to adopt improved beekeeping approaches.

2.3 该方法的照片

关于照片的一般说明:

Technical skills and capacity building to beekeepers via beekeeping groups ensures efficiency during field activities. Beekeepers' income sources are diversified through value added products that are produced. For example, the production of wax candles, body lotions, lip balms by using beeswax and wine made from honey.

2.6 该方法的开始和终止日期

若不知道准确的年份,请注明该方法的大致开始日期。:

50多年前(传统)

注释:

Beekeeping is one of the traditional activities in the area that has been carried out from one generation to another purposely for production of bee products. Through beekeeping approach, conservation of natural trees and other resources can be attained as they are potential resources required by bees for feed and habitat provision to bees. Through the DSL-IP Miombo Project in Tanzania, beekeepers are sensitized on modern beekeeping by being provided with skills and technical support for undertaking their beekeeping activities.

2.7 方法的类型

  • 传统/本土

2.8 该方法的主要目的/目标

1. Beekeeping is practiced as a method of conservation of trees and other potential resources against encroachment from illegal timber harvesting, specifically in forest reserves.
2. Beekeeping is further developed for diversification of income sources so as to have access to other bee products besides honey which is commonly used as food and medicine.
3. On-farm beekeeping ensures pollination of crops thereby increasing crop yields.

2.9 推动或妨碍实施本办法所适用的技术的条件

社会/文化/宗教规范和价值观
  • 启动

Beekeeping being one of the traditional practices in this area, minimum energy and resources are required on promoting and sensitizing individuals to undertake beekeeping as they are experienced with it. Knowledge transfer is shared from one generation to another within families as members are engaged in management of beehives and other beekeeping activities throughout.

财务资源和服务的可用性/可得性
  • 阻碍

Beekeepers do not have reliable access to financial resources (capital) which could enable them to acquire modern beekeeping tools and production facilities. They cannot access loans from financial institutions for undertaking beekeeping activities as beekeeping relies on weather/climatic conditions for productions, whereas beekeepers cannot be assured of their productions in terms of quantities.

机构设置
  • 启动

For effective management of beekeeping activities, institutions have placed beekeeping officers for administration and supervision of beekeeping activities by linking beekeepers to the Government.

参与者的的协作/协调
  • 启动

Beekeepers tend to form groups within their communities, through which they undertake their beekeeping activities. Through such beekeeping groups, they are easily reached by the government for trainings, technical support and financial grants that are given to groups who apply for projects specifically on beekeeping activities. Various stakeholders collaborate with the government by providing technical support to beekeepers in terms of skills and tools required.

法律框架(土地使用权、土地和水使用权)
  • 启动

In Tanzania, beekeeping is allowed to be undertaken in forest reserves and bee reserves. Beekeepers are granted with an entry permit into reserves for undertaking their beekeeping activities. Because of the presence of diverse plant species that flower at different seasons and also the security of their beehives, beekeepers prefer beekeeping in protected areas.

政策
  • 启动

Beekeeping is one among the Departments within the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism which has policies and regulations in place.

土地治理(决策、实施和执行)
  • 启动

The presence of laws that govern management of forest and bee reserves as well as by-laws, against encroachment by illegal human activities, ensures the security of natural resources required by bees.

了解SLM,获得技术支持
  • 启动

Hands-on trainings to beekeepers are provided through extension services by beekeeping officers. Also, the presence of institutions in the country which provide technical knowledge on modern beekeeping techniques ensures professionalism and sustainable beekeeping practices.

市场(购买投入,销售产品)和价格
  • 阻碍

Beekeepers do not have a readily available market of their products. Because of this, they are forced to sell their products through middlemen (traders). This results in lower returns to producers. Also, because of financial constraints, farmers do not have access to modern beekeeping tools and facilities for increased production and product quality assurance.

工作量、人力资源可用性
  • 启动

Beekeeping activity requires manpower for hives making and for hanging hives on trees. Here, beekeepers tend to assist among themselves. Women who undertake on-tree beekeeping activities depend on men during the time of taking up/down of bee hives.

其他
  • 阻碍

Climatic changes can have impacts on beekeeping activities, hence affecting production. For instance, during heavy rains flowers tend to fall down from trees thus affecting bee feed availability resulting in lowered honey production.
Also, when the rain is too small, the flower production on trees is minimum resulting in low feed availability for bees.

3. 相关利益相关者的参与和角色

3.1 该方法涉及的利益相关者及其职责

  • 当地土地使用者/当地社区

Beekeepers from a beekeeping group Known as MIYOMBO GROUP were involved in application of this approach.

编制者或其他关键资源人员认为的弱点/缺点/风险 如何克服它们?
Women participation in beekeeping productions within the value chain is still very low as compared to men. Promote on-farm beekeeping to women so that they can also participate in the production of bee products. Women should be influenced to participate on beekeeping activities.
Lack of enough capital by beekeepers for upscaling beekeeping practices in a modern way. Linking beekeepers to markets that will assure them good income and profit generation so to expand their activities and apply modern tools such as hives for increased productions.
