flora resources

IV. THE BEE INDUSTRY ROADMAP
A. VISION
“A profitable bee industry that supports
agriculture, forestry and biodiversity
conservation and capable of supplying
quality bees and bee products to local and
foreign markets”

B. MISSION
“To provide a collaborative forum for
industry, funding agencies, and RD and E
providers to lead research, innovation and
adoption to benefit the Philippine bee
industry”

C. GOALS
 Strengthen the multi-disciplinary RDE programs
 Training and capacity development
 Support enterprise development
 Integrate apiculture in the farming systems
 Conserve and manage indigenous bee species
 Institutionalize policies on importation and
quarantine

D. OBJECTIVES

one service laboratory for each region
 Generate R&D apiculture technologies
 Promote standardization of bee products
 Develop and strengthen policies to promote organic
agriculture by integrating apicultural technologies
 Promote apitourism
 Establish information hub for DA-HVCDP

E. TARGETS
 Continuous supply of quality queen bees and bee
stocks
 Increased production of quality bees and bee
products
 Strict quarantine of imported queen bees and bee
products

E. TARGETS
