As the Melghat region is a rich source of natural honey, we have honey bee keeping centre which creates awareness about Honey bee keeping and popularizes various methods for successful honey bee keeping. We have introduced B.Sc. Apiculture and other short term training programmes for the students and local people in order to provide them need based training. We have a honey processing plant and we provide honey processing services on minimal rates. The centre also works for the conservation of forest and environment by cultivating plants necessary for successful honey bee keeping with the help of varied flora richly available in Melghat.
