The Role of Beekeeping in the Generation of Goods and Services: The Interrelation between Environmental, Socioeconomic, and Sociocultural Utilities

Abstract: Honey bees and beekeeping belong to a large enterprise where the managers are the beekeepers, the workers are the bees, and the products generated are ecosystem goods and services, mostly intangible. Evidence for a reduction in the number of pollinating insects in the planet due to causes that are still being studied has put the spotlight on beekeeping activity and bees (wild and managed) due to their extraordinary capacity to contribute to pollination. The aim of the present work was to detect, identify, and … Show more

“…When companies are involved in GIs, they may see an increase in their financial results in the short term given the benefits of being part of a GI environment. It is worth noting that the authors point to improved outcomes through interaction with training strategies and new production technologies (ETXEGARAI-LEGARRETA; SANCHEZ-FAMOSO, 2022).…”

“…The plot size, previous experience with fertilizer, fertilizer supply, farm size, amount of rainfall, household size, and the ratio of the price of the main crop to the cost of fertilizer, as well as access to credit, were identified as factors that restrict the demand for fertilizer among arable crop farmers by ref. [ 67 ] in Ethiopia and [ 85 ] in Sub-Saharan Africa. Credit, farm size, risk, labor availability, human capital, land tenure, and education, according to Feder et al [ 81 ] in their research report, are the main determinants determining technological adoption.…”

“…In general, the land factor is used for primary agricultural activities; however, beekeeping does not use land directly, rather focusing on other basic resources or capital: natural (honey bees, flowering plants, and water, among other things), human (experience, skills, and knowledge), material or physical (facilities, transportation, water, and energy), social (help from friends, family, social networks, associations, marketing information, and research results), and economic (cash, accessibility to loans, and subsidies) [14] (Figure 1). Despite its potential benefits, the integration of apiculture into rural development initiatives is not without challenges.…”
