{"product_id":"beekeeping-in-tropical-africa-peter-david-paterson-9798513236276","title":"Beekeeping in Tropical Africa","description":"Small-scale beekeeping is an attractive cash crop option for resource-poor farmers in the tropics. It demands little in the way of time, finances or natural resources, and the honey and beeswax harvested can be processed in the home and sold locally. At the same time, pollination by honeybees will increase the yields of many staple food crops.\u003cbr\u003eThis book, through its clear explanatory text and admirable illustrations, skilfully lays out the elements of good practice in tropical beekeeping. It explains both traditional techniques using low-cost hives and more advanced methods, pointing out the most appropriate system for the level of investment the beekeeper wishes to make. The author has a wealth of knowledge, developed through years of thoughtful observation and practical experience working with beekeepers all over Africa and with his own hives in Kenya. Existing beekeepers wishing to improve their techniques and those looking to start a new beekeeping enterprise will find the book invaluable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter David Paterson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8513236276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798513236276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.36d","brand":"Peter David Paterson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43944975827199,"sku":"9798513236276","price":19.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a12673c8-e55f-4056-9d9c-bc0888406c0a.jpg?v=1681506059","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beekeeping-in-tropical-africa-peter-david-paterson-9798513236276","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
