The most important obstacles facing the sector of beekeeping, producing and marketing of honey are as follows:
1- Lack of laboratories of analyzing and grading honey. The international market of honey requires a product with specific and known specifications. The product must be pacified in modern and special packaging tools.
2- Spread of bees’ disease and insects. This requires a laboratory to analyze, diagnose it and determine the appropriate dugs of it. Therefore, the YFASD seeks to obtain a modern laboratory to provide services to beekeepers, producers and marketers of honey in Yemen.
The required amount to establish this kind of laboratory is 200,000 USD.
