Kampala — APIARY farmers in the West Nile region should form strong groups if they are to benefit from their enterprise.
The chairman, Uganda National Apiary Development Organisation, Jackson Jurua McPeace, said this would help them get funds and equipment from the Government and non-governmental organisations.
He noted that individual subsistence beekeepers could not harness enough profits as the large scale commercial beekeeping projects. Jurua said Kilimo Trust Organisation was willing to offer funds to support beekeepers under industrious groups.
