Harvesting honey from a top-bar hive

In this video, newly trained beekeepers demonstrate how to harvest honey from a top-bar hive. They also explain how to use a smoker, show how to tell when honey is ready for harvest, and advise on the best times to attempt a honey harvest. This honey can then be sold in addition to other valuable bee products such as wax, giving a direct income benefit from these conservation efforts.

This project in Cameroon was supported by Size of Wales.
