Guyana has been experiencing major success in honey output, having already produced approximately 18,000 gallons of honey as of October this year., the Department of Public Information (DPI) reported yesterday.

This is according to the Minister of Agriculture, Zulfikar Mustapha yesterday at the first-ever honey fest hosted at the Guyana Livestock Development Authority (GLDA) at Mon Repos.

Mustapha said this big increase is due to the renewed interest in the apiculture industry and significant investment by the government.
